USS Pittsburgh Loses Bow

The heavy cruiser Pittsburgh experiences quivering at its bow due to pounding waves. Suddenly, the bow falls off, but the crew had already evacuated the forward compartments, ensuring no casualties. Despite the 104-foot section being severed, the Pittsburgh continues to move under its own power and is later towed to port by another vessel.
