  This photo taken by USS Iowa (BB-61) shows an Essex class carrier at Saipan. The carrier's camouflage is Design 6A on the port side, so she must be USS Bunker Hill (CV-17) since she only carried 6A on the port. The official caption does not give a date. But, both Bunker Hill and Iowa together were part of Task Force 38.2 and the Task Force 38 chronology says 38.2 arrived ar Garapan Harbor, Saipan on September 28 ,1944, and left on the 29th.
