Title: Okinawa Campaign, 1945
Description: A Japanese Zeke airplane splashes into the sea astern of USS Vincennes (CL-64), during an attack on Task Group 58.1 off Okinawa on 6 April 1945. The original caption states: Broadness of splash indicates plane either had no bomb, or that it did not explode, as tall, thin column, characteristic of bomb explosion, is missing. Photographed from USS Miami (CL-89). Official U.S. Navy Photograph, now in the collections of the National Archives.
