| Thumbnail | Description & Credit | ![]() | Hauled out for repairs at the Destroyer Base, San Diego, California, following a collision with USS Percival (DD-298) on the night of 31 January 1926. The original caption reads: "Close-up showing dent in her side as a result of the collision with USS Percival, Sunday night, 31 January 1926. The collision occurred between the two ships in Coronado Roads, California. The sharp prow of the Percival punctured the port forward oil tank of the William Jones, in addition to cutting three deep gashes in the hull just above the water line and cracking several frame plates. William Jones was placed on the marine ways at the Destroyer Base for repairs, when spattered from stem to stern with oil that poured out from the leaking fuel tank, she returned to the harbor. Percival, apparently seaworthy, was ordered to proceed to Panama with the Fleet.". Credit: NAVY. |
