[Hubert Miller]

This photo is from a Navy 1944 film on the recapture of Guam,

Looks like a TBX to me.
The film shows the rescue of George Tweed, "Ghost of Guam", who hid out on the
Japanese occupied island for 31 months. The film doesn't look like a reenactment,
but it had to have been, as I can't imagine the destroyer had ready a camera to film
Tweed signaling from shore and then swimming to the small boat sent to fetch him.
Well done. Tweed is a natural actor and speaks well in scene from last of movie. His
story also in the book, "Robinson Crusoe, U.S.N." A radioman in the Navy, Tweed
postwar became a radio - TV repair person and died in a car accident in this state,
Oregon.
