I'm looking forward to seeing you again.

So the 905 must have had 2 twin 40mm, 6 single 40 mm, and 12 20 mm guns on deck. Looks like it was well armed.

I thought that the picture was of gunnary practice. I didn't think the crew would be sitting on deck with their fingers in their ears during an enemy attack.

The picture below I believe was taken during the Okinawa invasion.
