Description: The decommissioned U.S. Navy destroyer USS Barry (DD-933) is towed to the Washington Navy Yard, Washington D.C. (USA), by the fleet tug USNS Apache (T-AF-172) on 15 November 1983. The Barry was docked at Pier 2 and was opened to the public as a museum. She was sold in 2016 to be scrapped as it became too expensive to maintain her.
