[Tarawa Battle] verso
GSP
1944

by John Buscemi
for Yank Magazine (likely published March 10, 1944)

Inscribed on verso by Lou Stouman, who tries to recount the facts of Buscemi's death, but gets some details wrong.

According to text accompanying a retrospective of Buscemi's work, his last words were to Merle Miller, one of the Yank correspondents who covered the Pacific War and was with Bushemi at Eniwetok. He said: "Be sure to get those pictures back to the office."
