The visual survey resumes with a formation of Grumman Avengers and submarine crews returning to Alexandria. The submarines display the Jolly Roger to signal a successful patrol, connecting the photograph with the culture of wartime claims and homecoming. A shipbuilding article includes a photograph tentatively identified as USS New Jersey under construction. The sequence ends with a British submarine attacking Axis supply vessels in the Mediterranean. Together the pages compress naval aviation, submarine operations, industrial production, and commerce warfare into a rapidly changing picture of Allied maritime power.
