Blogged: An intervalometer automatically snapped this dramatic photo from the tail of a B-25 flown by Frank Cecil, 71st Bomb Squadron/38th Bomb Group. Behind him, Richard Hastings has just flashed over the stern of either Arasaki or Hayasaki, identical storeships that were anchored in Simpson Harbor. In the background, multiple fires started by phosphorous bombs obscure #Rabaul. #WWII
