Dramatic large 1943 photograph of Pearl Harbor, scene of the sneak attack by Japan a little over a year earlier. They are raising the battleship Oklahoma from it's resting place (having been capsized during the attacks of December 7, 1941) to be reused for battle in the Pacific. The image shows the water damaged hull from the USS Oklahoma as it is raised. Incredible image from the US Navy in nice shape and stamped on the back.
