Seen from the
radio-gunner's position, a surveillance flight over an island in Likiep
Atoll reveals only palm trees and a peaceful lagoon. Note the
empty mount for the .50 caliber machine gun in the left foreground of
the photograph. In order to increase the aircraft's patrol range,
these guns were removed, along with the Plexiglas window.
