Battle Wagon Blazes Away at Okinawa. Amtracs from a Coast Guard-manned LST surge toward the beach with the first and second assault waves on L-Day, as a giant Navy battle wagon delivers a broadside at Jap installations on the coast of Okinawa. This striking photo showing the flash of the big guns and the white wakes of the landing craft in sharp contrast to the water and leaden sky was made from a Coast Guard-manned LST, standing offshore awaiting the word to land with its cargo of fighting mend and supplies.
