In the heat of battle, photographer Horace Bristol captured one of the most unique and erotic photos of WWII.

Bristol photographed a young crewman of a US Navy “Dumbo” PBY rescue mission, manning his gun after having stripped naked and jumped into the water of Rabaul Harbor to rescue a badly burned Marine pilot. The Marine was shot down while bombing the Japanese-held fortress of Rabaul.

“…we got a call to pick up an airman who was down in the Bay. The Japanese were shooting at him from the island, and when they saw us they started shooting at us. The man who was shot down was temporarily blinded, so one of our crew stripped off his clothes and jumped in to bring him aboard. He couldn’t have swum very well wearing his boots and clothes. As soon as we could, we took off. We weren’t waiting around for anybody to put on formal clothes. We were being shot at and wanted to get the hell out of there. The naked man got back into his position at his gun in the blister of the plane.”

“And well, there was his butt, and I had a camera. I mean I AM a historian.”

That is the BEST EVER quote about the nature of historians I’ve ever seen

Hello yes winning a shitty ex competition and watching a hagfish tear Alien-style through a fish carcass named after the boy who faked leaving the country instead of dumping me properly has done more for my mental health than the months of therapy he caused.

[shutupmerlin]

Honestly this just added 10 years to my life

I found it funny that a dude living in a cave for 20 years decided to vaccinate as soon as he heard about the virus for the first time

[redpandarascal]

you leave your cave and you hear that there’s a global plague, but good news, there’s a vaccine! but bad news, a lot of people won’t get the vaccine, out of jackassery.

if that was me I’d be like “shit like this, is EXACTLY why I’m a cave hermit.”

This is an old practice.

[thesickestsinner]

It’s called entrapment and, to the best of my knowledge, it is illegal to do this.

[wetwareproblem]

Except it’s not, because to prove entrapment you need to prove that a) police instigated the crime, b) which you would not otherwise have committed. Leaving bait lying around is passive enough that it probably doesn’t qualify for point A, and makes it nearly impossible to prove point B. Nasty, sleazy, underhanded, actively detrimental to the communities they’re supposed to be “serving,” but legal.
