U.S. Navy Task Force 38

 * Reason:Impressive picture of the largest single naval formation in history to take part in a battle. There are 11 carriers and 3 battleships, plus some other smaller ships doing a concerted maneuver shortly after Japan's surrender. Not gonna happen again. I think the imperfections are excusable considering the composition and subject matter.

 * Oppose for now. In clear need of restoration, white border jutting in at the top left corner. Crop is awfully tight (though this can't be helped much) — Chris Woodrich (talk) 11:31, 6 July 2016 (UTC)
 * Oppose – No doubt TF 38 was an impressive formation, but this aerial shot lacks detail and focus, the horizon appears to be tilted – and the war was over when it was taken, so it's not a war-action photo. Sca (talk) 14:51, 6 July 2016 (UTC)
