Ole Droopy was warped in the fire that destroyed the USS Monongahela in 1908 around 1915
Ole Droopy was warped in the fire that destroyed the USS Monongahela in 1908, then later salvaged and put on display. This is how the venerable gun appeared in 1915. I believe– but am open to debate on this– that it is an early Mark 2 gun.
