View of Medical Corps truck on ramp of assault landing ship. Soldiers in military trucks on ship. Printed on back: "From: Public Relations Officer, U.S. Coast Guard, Washington, D.C. Official U.S. Coast Guard photo. Nose dive. Down a ramp, leading from an assault landing ship, this Medical Corps truck was taking a nose dive into the surf as a Coast Guard combat photographer took the picture. Coast Guardsmen piloted the landing craft onto enemy beaches, and then supplies rolled out in a volume that sent the Axis reeling back into the Italian mountains."
