Thanks for another historic photo Jack. The book on the Yamamoto Intercept is a fine read for anyone on this forum. Rex Barber finally got the recognition that he desereved and there is a sign on the Crooked River Bridge in OR with his name on it now.

Spanner - I think it is for Yamamoto Mission but could be wrong.
