Zc779. General Douglas MacArthur, Library of Congress. This picture was attached to the Korean Hearing page, article and it says it is a 1905 picture. BUT THAT MUST BE WRONG; my guess is that it was shot after World War One.

Zc776

Zc776. U.S. Navy Deep Sea Diver diving on a sunken Japanese vessel next to Pier 7 in1945 at Manila. Did you know that the U.S Navy Deep Sea Divers were not required to know how to swim? When SCUBA diving was adopted, swimming became a prerequisite and some of the divers had to learn how to swim. Bob Hudson provided this picture.

Zc775

Zc775. U.S. Navy Deep Sea Diver diving on a sunken Japanese vessel next to Pier 7 in1945 at Manila. If I had been born earlier and on the right side of the war it could have been me. I was a U. S. Navy Deep Sea Diver (Hard Head Diver) after the war. That hard head rig weighed about 193 pounds; it was not easy to walk up a ladder with that rig. Bob Hudson provided this picture; he has an interesting web page:
