The USS Brough
in the late 1950s with advanced electronics on the mainmast and yardarm.
The topmost antenna is the TED (with the three AN/URR-13 series elements).
Below are the SU surface radar (small dome on the left) and the the larger
dome on the right is the ECM AS-570/SLR antenna. The DesDiv601 logo is on
the stack. It appears the K-guns, X-position weapon, and all AA
weapons from amidships have been grounded.

Undated photos probably taken during a change of
command ceremony while the Brough was stationed at Key West, Florida in
the late 1950s. The original of both these photos are missing from the
National Archives. These small index card-sized photocopies are all that
remain.
