Marines with combat cargo aboard the USS Oak Hill (LSD-51)

description

Summary

Marines with combat cargo aboard the USS Oak Hill (LSD-51) use chains to tie down an M1A1 Abrams tank aboard the ship during a certification exercise off the coast of Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, N.C., June 16. The tank was moved to the ship by a Landing Craft Air Cushion (LCAC) and will be used during the scenario-based amphibious integration exercise, which extends from June 15-30. The 26th MEU and the Kearsarge Amphibious Readiness Group are being certified by evaluators with the Expeditionary Operations Training Group (EOTG) in preparation for a deployment later this fall.

The objects in this collection are from The U.S. National Archives and Defense Visual Information Distribution Service. The U.S. National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) was established in 1934 by President Franklin Roosevelt. NARA keeps those Federal records that are judged to have continuing value—about 2 to 5 percent of those generated in any given year. There are approximately 10 billion pages of textual records; 12 million maps, charts, and architectural and engineering drawings; 25 million still photographs and graphics; 24 million aerial photographs; 300,000 reels of motion picture film; 400,000 video and sound recordings; and 133 terabytes of electronic data. The Defense Visual Information Distribution Service provides a connection between world media and the American military personnel serving at home and abroad. All of these materials are preserved because they are important to the workings of Government, have long-term research worth, or provide information of value to citizens.
