    Content: Edward Steichen war ein bedeutender Fotograf des 20. Jahrhunderts. Im Zweiten Weltkrieg war er Leiter der Fotografieabteilung der US-Navy. Im vorliegenden Bildband sind überwiegend Fofografien aus dieser Zeit aufgenommen worden. Die Soldaten und Mitarbeiter der Fotografieabteilung der Navy wollten den Alltag der Soldaten dokumentieren. Dabei ging es nicht nur darum, die Grausamkeit des Krieges zu verdeutlichen, sondern viele eher unspektakuläre Alltagssituationen festzuhalten, wozu auch gehört, dass Soldaten oft lange Zeit zum Warten und Nichtstun verurteilt sind.
    Content: The Aviation Photographic Unit was a military unit unlike any other in World War II. Founded and led by legendary photographer Edward Steichen, the photographers in this unit gave Americans on the home front memorable and dramatic images of the people fighting the Navy's battles in the Pacific theater. Beginning with just half a dozen intrepid shutterbugs and expanding to ten battle-seasoned photographers, the unit covered everything from early aircraft raids to amphibious landings to the surrender in Tokyo Bay. With an estimated 14000 images in the collection of the National Archives, the work of this talented photographic unit is historically significant not only as a visual record of the war, but also for its influence on generations of postwar photographers.
