Mr. Hatch filmed the fighting at Tarawa in 1943. Take a look at the photo he sent to Mr. Steed and St. Christopher's (on the right).

That footage was so amazing I had to watch it twice. I think it's amazing that he was able to survive and have his footage shown. I never knew there was actual footage of battles.
i also didnt know that they had camera men during the battles. i had always thought they came after. also i thought camera and doctor people wore specific clothing that notified the enemys that they wer doctors and camera men not soldiers and that they shouldn't shoot.

It must have been pretty scary to be on the front lines of a battle just to take pictures.
