Photo intelligence officer with stereoscopic device

The photo intelligence officer studies photograph made from the film shot over enemy territory, with the aid of this stereoscopic device. When two prints, made from slightly different angles by the reconnaissance plane, are placed in the proper position side by side, and viewed as shown, they seem to merge into one relief image. Hills and valleys, and the irrelative heights, are easily observed in the flat views. (Officer is Capt. James B. Hathaway, 23, of 610 W. Norman Ave., Dayton, Ohio.)
