Sometime back, I really don’t know when, a footlocker was opened and some film was found from an old Browning Camera… remember those?
When the film was finally developed — after a very long time — some quite remarkable pictures popped up.
I like to think I am a student of history … but these pictures were rather remarkable. The devastation was far greater than I could have imagined.
In any event, I put together a group of these pictures that are merely thumbnails of larger version that you can further explore if your desires take you in that direction.
The vastly reduced pictures I have placed on this page… a Japanese Zero, and explosion and sinking American ships are just some of the photos recaptured from that old Browning camera.
There are lessons still to be learned here… be prepared, take the battle to the enemy and never feel that you are truely safe… because as Thomas Jefferson said … the price of liberty is eternal vigilance.
