Who, What, When, Where and Why
Major W. Espy, Sr. is third from right, in the back a bit. I had thought this photo had to do with the trip to Russia (1959), but Karen Grimsley Baxter did not see her father or father-in-law. Notice, there's a steam ship of some kind. Maybe this is a naval yard? But why would all these men be dressed up? I wondered if it had to do with the Alabama legislature. What about Alabama bankers? Or perhaps on a visit to Watty when he was stationed in the navy, up the east coast. I just don't know. Any clue? And if you don't know, where could I turn to find some answers?
Thanks!

I do not recognize anyone in the photo. It must be a state political group of some kind. It could be at the Mobile docks or somewhere overseas. I do not know who to refer you to. I wish I could help. It's a good photo.
