An American LST (Landing Ship Tank) disgorges its cargo on Hollandia (present-day Jayapura), 23 April 1944. Photo taken from an Enterprise plane. Note the plane's shadow at lower edge of photo. Vehicles fill the LST's deck; another dozen or so are parked in the opening in the trees. Crates of supplies appear to be stacked on the beach.
