Summary

DescriptionUSS Gambier Bay on fire.jpg	English: Gambier Bay (CVE-73) making smoke while shells from Japanese surface forces splash down beside her in the Battle off Samar. An unknown Japanese warship can be seen in the background (most likely the heavy cruiser Chikuma, as the shape does not match the battleships Yamato and Kongo, the two other warships attacking Gambier Bay); this is one of the few photos showing both American and Japanese ships in the same image. US Navy photo.
