Synopsis
In the years following World War II, images of comradeship, particularly of men being physically close, largely disappeared from the public record. But, as these stunning photographs attest, ordinary American men in the extraordinary circumstances of World War II were affectionate, winsome, and playful - disarmingly innocent in a time of cataclysmic peril. Led by photography giant Captain Edward J. Steichen, the U.S. Naval Aviation Photographic Unit was organized during the war to record the daily experiences of Navy men all over the world and to provide newspapers and magazines with images to promote the American cause. The unit's photographers, which included Wayne Miller, Horace Bristol, Victor Jorgensen, and Barrett Gallagher, took thousands of pictures of soldiers as they relaxed, trained, prepared for the next battle, and waited. This book brings together more than 150 of those photographs culled from the National Archives, including many that have never before been published. Whereas World War II imagery tends to be dominated by combat photography and monumental depictions of weaponry, these photographs offer a rare, intimate look at the Navy men themselves.

    Very nice Roger Clemens signed baseball. It's just as described and shown in the picture. The packaging was great. I was wondering when I would get to the ball lol. The shipping was extremely reasonable, as was the cost of the ball. Great value! It came in its own labeled box, so it's already in my display. Very nice doing business with you. Very smooth transaction. A++++++++++++++ Thank you!

    Among the most compelling photos I've had the pleasure to view. And I don't think the subjects or the photographers knew this at the time. Just wish I had found this volume sooner!
