Wow! Did he happen to catch the kamikaze hitting the Maryland? I once saw that photo, but wasn’t able to get a copy at that time. I’d sure like one...
He did get some kamakazi pics, but I have no idea if it was the Maryland. He had some battle photos showing explosions, and one from the air showing all the ships and landing craft heading onto the beach, with their wakes sweeping behind them. I don’t have the pictures anymore, as I have five other siblings one of whom must have grabbed them all.
But I remember them vividly.
