  • Delete. I uploaded this picture as part of a Commons transfer drive at English Wikipedia several years ago on good faith based on the text in the file description page. In response to this deletion request I checked a Google Books preview of the book in question and found no picture on the cited page. Since I don't have physical access to the book in question, I have to consider verification failed and therefore there is no evidence supporting this picture is freely licensed. I apologize for the inconvenience. Grondemar 04:34, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Kept: I happen to own a paperback copy of the cited book. The image credit reads "U.S. Navy photo, courtesy of Rafael C. Benitez". .     Jim . . . . (Jameslwoodward) (talk to me) 15:43, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
