With the Fifth Army Air Force
Photos from the Pacific Theater
by James P. Gallagher
"In 1942, Baltimore native James P. Gallagher enlisted in the Army Air Force and a year later was on active duty in the Southwest Pacific Theater as a communications officer. Among the personal belongings he took was a Baldaxette camera. An amateur photographer, Gallagher hoped one day to put together a scrapbook of his overseas tour. The army made no objections to its airmen taking pictures as long as they avoided radar equipment and Americans killed in action.
Nearly sixty years later, Gallagher's photos have been collected in With the Fifth Army Air Force, a personal photographic record of America's war in the Pacffic."--BOOK JACKET.
