File talk:AttuSnow.jpg

Incorrect Copyright Information?
The original text entered with the picture claims these are NZ troops disembarking from a US ship. None of the articles on the fighting on Attu indicate NZ troops were involved. Furthermore the current text accompanying the image clearly indicate that it is US troops, which matches the gear being worn.

A photograph is copyright whomever took the picture, not whatever website happens to be republishing it without permission or without indicating under what circumstances they claim to have permission to republish. I strongly doubt the Australian government, Australian Military, or the Australian War Memorial Site *have* the copyright to this picture, as I'd expect that the picture was taken by a member of the US Military while on that operation.

(It doesn't matter where you got your copy, the copyright belongs to whom took the picture.) We need to figure out who took the picture, and re-do the copyright claim.

Anyone have a more authentic copyright source for this image? I can't find anything useful with Google Images.
