The Navy captions this photo as being taken aboard USS Nicholas. This is possible but it was USS Radford that picked up two survivors of the Japanese cruiser Jintsu. Records from Nicholas include no mention of picking up Japanese survivors.

Famous WW2 Quote
"You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word. It is victory. Victory at all costs. Victory in spite of all terrors. Victory, however long and hard the road may be, for without victory there is no survival."Winston Churchill
