Drawing

These are the drawings for Measure 32 Design 4T for the transport USS Republic (AP-33) dated June 12, 1944. The vertical colors for Measure 32 were again dull black (BK), ocean gray (5-O) and light gray (5-L) with deck blue (20-B) for the horizontal color.

The first Design 6A drawing was for the Essex class carriers on July 19, 1943. Design 6A was then redrawn for the USS Terror class minelayers on April 9, 1944. Design 6A was redrawn on May 26, 1944, for the USS Wright (AV-1) seaplane tender in Measure 32 colors. Later in June it was drawn up for transports.
