At random: The USS SKIPJACK was the first submarine designed from the keel up for top underwater performance using nuclear power. An earlier SKIPJACK was the first U.S. submarine to cross the Atlantic ocean under her own power (Newport, Rhode Island to Ponta Delgada, Azores, in 1917).

Dynamic static. The motion of its props causes an "aura" to form around this F6F on USS YORKTOWN. Rapid change of pressure and drop in temperature create condensation. Rotating with blades, halo moves aft, giving depth and perspective. November 1943. (Navy) Exact Date Shot Unknown NARA FILE #: 0080-G-204747A WAR & CONFLICT BOOK #: 961
