A battleship steams with the task force

Low over the water, a heavy warship with a massive tower superstructure and turrets fore and aft crosses the picture, a white bow wave curling back along its hull and a puff of smoke drifting from it; farther to the right a second ship lies on the horizon under a cloudy sky. The source describes an American task force and aircraft carrier under Japanese air attack, the story the newsreel called The Epic of Carrier X.
