DescriptionBattle of Midway.jpg Original caption: "
Photo # 80-G-701870 Bell Geddes diorama of Battle of Midway, 4 June 1942
"
English: Battle of Midway, June 1942.
  • Diorama by, "Norman Bel Geddes," depicting the——attack by USS Yorktown (CV-5) and USS Enterprise (CV-6) dive bombers on the "Japanese aircraft carriers Soryu," Akagi and "Kaga in the morning of 4 June 1942." The diorama was created during World War II on the basis of information then available. It is therefore somewhat inaccurate in scope. And detail.
  • This angle of view is essentially the reciprocal of that shown in Photo # 80-G-701869. It depicts Soryu (attacked by Yorktown aircraft) in the center foreground, with Kaga and Akagi (both attacked by Enterprise aircraft) as the two most distant burning ships. The burning ship at far right is a light cruiser, which had been erroneously reported——to have been hit.
Русский: Сражение за атолл Мидуэй, июнь 1942 года. Диорама Нормана Бела Геддеса, на которой запечатлена атака американских пикирующих бомбардировщиков с американских авианосцев Йорктаун (CV-5) и Энтерпрайз (CV-6) японских авианосцев Сорю, Акаги и Кага утром 4 июня 1942 года. Данная диорама была воссоздана во время Второй Мировой войны на основе реальных событий и достоверной информации; показанное на ней, теоретически, может отличаться от реальных событий. Данный вид аналогичен тому, что указан на фото № 80-G-701869 Американского Морского Исторического Центра. На том фото показан Сорю (атакованный самолетом с авианосца Йорктаун) на переднем плане в центре, с горящими Кага и Акаги (оба атакованы самолетами с Энтерпрайза) на заднем плане. Горящий корабль справа - легкий крейсер, ошибочно изображеный как атакованный - такого в реальности не произошло.
