Several sailors in white trousers, dark jackets, and white side caps, hurry into formation where they are inspected by supervisor wearing a checkered necktie. Officers in Khaki look through binoculars as the Thors' Arado 196 float plane lands and taxis in, guided by sailor with signal flags.

Next, the ship is seen moving in rough high seas. Smoke is seen from Thor's guns firing again, and another ship is stopped in the water. Based on profile of ship, it appears to be the Norwegian oil tanker Madrono (D/T Madrono), intercepted on July 4, 1942.

U.S. soldiers watching the performance of Tsianina Redfeather (a.k.a. Tsianina Blackstone), during World War I .

Tsianina Redfeather (also known as Tsianina Blackstone), a famous Creek-Cherokee Native American Indian mezzo-soprano, plays the Hawaiian guitar and sings for U.S. soldiers in YMCA- sponsored entertainment for the troops in a canteen, 1917-1918, during World War 1. (Historic note: While sailing to Europe in 1918 as a member of the American Expeditionary Forces, her vessel, the HMS Carmania, was struck by a torpedo. She continued the journey, entertained thousands of troops, and received a commendation for her service. Her interest in entertaining the troops, according to her autobiography, rested in the fact that so many American Indian soldiers were fighting overseas-- around 17,000. After her return to the U.S. her career continued to escalate. This clip perhaps represents the only surviving footage of this truly remarkable individual.)
