Description	Title from verso. Photograph of an artillery unit as they watch U.S. aircraft pass over their position. Verso reads : "Attu -- All eyes focus anxiously on the Aleutian skies as American fighting men watch their air arm fly into battle. The guns, of course, are focussed on the Japs in the hills of Attu as U.S. troops begin operations on that western-most island of the Aleutian chain. Latest reports from Attu indicate that the island's rough, rocky terrain may delay the final allied push against the Japs . NY DJH #12 60 MGS LV MIL CAN TS 5/27/43 (RK) Credit line (Official U. S.
