English: Crewmen aboard USS Saratoga lift AOM 2nd Class Kenneth Bratton, USNR, out of a TBF Avenger's rear turret after a raid on Rabaul on 5 November 1943. He was wounded by 7.7mm bullets in his left knee and upper thigh. The aircraft and a friendly F6F Hellcat (LTJG Stanley K. Crockett) successfully fought off eight attacking Zeroes, claiming three. Crockett's F6F had 268 bullet holes (54 in the cockpit area), TBF "19" of VT-19 had 109 bullet holes, with hydraulics, elevators and intercom shot up – despite that the pilot Commander Henry Caldwell made an almost perfect one-wheel down arrested landing. Bratton, ACRM (radioman and ventral tunnel gunner) Robert W. Morey (wounded in shoulder, face, and neck) and pilot Caldwell survived. Photographer's Mate Paul Barnett was killed in action – the back of his head torn off by a 7.7mm bullet.
