Rare Kodachrome Images World War II -Revisited

Thanks for sharing.

I wouldn't call them rare, as there are plenty of books with Wartime Kodachrome photos about. It's just that people don't expect original WW2 (or even WW1) photos to be in colour. ;)
 
Dave, thanks for bringing this to our attention. Great photos from an awful period of time. I can remember, as a young child during the fifties, how the aftermath of that war & the Korean war permeated the life of my father, (he enlisted in the Navy in 1944 & was stationed at N.A.S. Pearl Harbor as a underwater wielder still cleaning up the wreckage of the 41 attack) and the military community at large. I have so many of his Kodachrome's & B/W images from that time.

Mike!

We would love to those Kodachrome images!!!!! Wow!:)
 
Dave, I will work on posting some of them, they are truly amazing. When my father secured living quarters for us, my mother & I flew out of San Francisco Bay on the Mars seaplane & landed in Pearl Harbor, pretty cool adventure.
