Title: Rare Aircraft Carrier Film WWII
Post by: Dave on May 13, 2010, 07:41:56 AM

Here's an email I rec'd I thought some of you may enjoy:

This is 16mm color (not "colorized") footage, that you may not have seen, of carrier
action in the Pacific.

There wasn't much color shot in the '40s - extremely expensive then, with a complicated
and exacting processing process.

This is from Marine and (SFPD) retiree San Francisco PD motors and IPA Region-25 (Arizona) Associate Secretary to Australia, Richard Ellis.

Semper Fi, and enjoy my friends. You gotta watch this to the end. It is fantastic.
