U.S. Navy Rear Admiral Richmond Turner (in garrison hat) converses with Admiral Chester Nimitz and officers accompanying him on visit to Kwajalein island during World War 2. They walk about the debris left after the battle of Kwajalein. The area is dominated by broken trees and foliage. They climb into three jeeps. Change of scene shows the group posing for a photograph. (An inverted color image of the Cruiser, USS Indianapolis (CA-35) is momentarily inserted here.) Back on Kwajalein, damaged remains of Japanese fuel drums are seen. Admiral Nimitz and party walk across remnants of shattered trees and foliage. They pause near destroyed remains of Japanese structures. Suddenly, an image of the USS Indianapolis appears (rightside up, this time). Glimpse of a U.S. Navy PB2Y Coronado flying boat overhead. A succession of fuzzy scenes. A scene turned sideways. Admiral Turner (in garrison cap, holding a cup of coffee) converses with visiting officers. Admiral Nimitz, seen momentarily, with arms akimbo.The visiting officers board jeeps.
