A visually stunning collection that brings the soldiers''
experience to vivid photographic life- includes a DVD.
The Aviation Photographic Unit was a military unit unlike any
other in World War II. Founded and led by legendary photographer
Edward Steichen, the photographers in this unit gave Americans on
the home front memorable and dramatic images of the people fighting
the Navy''s battles in the Pacific theater. Beginning with just half
a dozen intrepid shutterbugs and expanding to ten battle-seasoned
photographers, the unit covered everything from early aircraft
raids to amphibious landings to the surrender in Tokyo Bay. With an
estimated 14,000 images in the collection of the National Archives,
the work of this talented photographic unit is historically
significant not only as a visual record of the war, but also for
its influence on generations of postwar photographers. Faces of War
is a tribute to the vision of Edward Steichen, as well as the men
who served under him, and most importantly to their subjects-the
unsung heroes of the U.S. Navy. Steichen''s unit included such
well-known photographers as:
LCdr. Horace Bristol
Lt. Barrett Gallagher
LCdr. Charles Fenno Jacobs
Lt. Victor Jorgensen
LCdr. Charles Kerlee
LCdr. Dwight S. Long
Lt. Wayne Miller
