Couldn't find a bigger pic. And when I stretch 'em, it distorts them to much (figured it would make it harder than it is).

Not De Ruyter.

Java, huh? Sigh.

I found this on the internet, and thought it looked similar. The photo I have is the USS Arkansas firing on the beaches of Normandy.

This led me to think that Feinder's photo was one of the old US BB's (Either Pennsylvania, New York, or Texas) under kamikaze attack.

So basically, my sighting report misidentified a CL for a BB....
