The Snapshots in Time Collection
Gallery: OKINAWA WWII LOOSE PHOTOS
Loose snapshots from the 1945 Okinawa campaign pair U.S. Navy shipboard life, destroyers and auxiliary vessels at anchor, with scenes of Okinawan civilians washing clothes, weaving baskets, and moving along coastal roads. Together they give the battle a rare civilian counterpoint alongside its naval record.
