1943 Large photograph of the Pacific Fleet and dated exactly two years after the attack on Pearl Harbor (December 7, 1943). Titled on the back as "Bodyguards" this is an official US Navy photograph and stamped on the back. This is almost certainly the work of one of Edward Steichen's team of photographers that would make this a work of art if it could be positively identified!
