Wayne Miller The Price of Freedom: USS Saratoga. South Pacific. November 1943.
"This photograph was taken on the USS Saratoga, the morning of the November 1943 attack on the island of Rabaul.
Wayne was read
(...) y to board one of the planes when a fellow photographer pleaded with him to take his place, so he stayed behind. That photographer, Paul T. Barnett, did not make it back.
Despite the casualties, it was considered a successful raid."
