My Apologies
To those who have sent
their names and additional
information, that I have
not yet added.

This project has become
very large and though I
work on it almost every
day, it is impossible
for me to keep up.

I will continue to add the
names and information as
quickly as I can.

Thank You All
For Your Support

"I'm sorry we only take ID card pictures between 8 and 11 every morning."

The INDEPENDENCE Photo Lab does more than take photographs for ID
cards. The lab responds to a variety of assignments, whether
it's a re-enlistment picture for Public Affairs, or a
report of an accident or an investigation.

The Photomates of the lab have been on the scene all over the
ship this year and have provided a great number of photos
for the cruise book and processed nearly all of them.
With capabilities to process all types of
pictures both color and black and
white, and slides.

The photo lab, by its own estimation, will have produced
enough prints to completely paper the hull of the ship
during the cruise!

Wow, that's a lot of time in the darkroom.
