A weathered snapshot from a WWII photo album shows a cargo transport riding at anchor in a Pacific harbor near Ie Shima, home to the 345th Bombardment Group in 1945. Ships like this one — mass-produced Liberty-type freighters — formed the backbone of the logistical pipeline that kept forward Army Air Forces bases supplied with fuel, bombs, spare parts, and provisions during the final push of the Pacific War. Though faded with age, the image preserves a quiet moment of wartime shipping far from the sound of combat. Project: 218234
