We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

September, 1943 Page 249 Pertinent Pictures Left: "Invasion Convoy — Africa- bound" was the public's first choice among the fifty great war photo- graphs exhibited in The Graflex War Picture Show. The winning picture is an unusual aerial view taken through the clouds of the U. S. African convoy, the largest mass movement of men and ships in the history of the world. (U. S. Navy Photo) Below: Lt. Harold R. Fleck, USNR, goes into action with his ship at Sicily. Lt. Fleck was President of the Vaporate Company, New York City, before the war. Above: Production crew at work on a documen- tary film about TVA which will be released in foreign countries by the Overseas Motion Picture Branch of the Office of War Information. Captain Traube of the Signal Corps directed the film. Right: A new important Navy devel- opment is the "Navy Gunnery Train- er"—a special unit developed by Lt. Commander D. L. Hibbard, USNR, Special Devices Section in the Bu- reau of Aeronautics, manufactured by the Jam Handy Organization and built around the Ampro Dual 16mm projectors. This visual training device improves the guality of U. S. aerial gunnery by providing machine gun practice under simulated aerial battle conditions. Against a silver screen there is projected the moving figure of an enemy plane, at which realis- tically the trainee "blasts away." A visual scoring device permits the in- structor to observe the accuracy of the trainee's aim.
