![]() ![]() A SINGLE REPRESENTATIVE photo has been selected for each donation and is listed as the Collection Photo. For each collection, a description is provided which outlines what subject matter can be found within the donation. The donations portions of the website are NOT LISTED as individual photographs, but rather by COLLECTION. Not all photographs or collections are available through the website, please contact staff if you are unable to locate imagery related to your research topic. Both individual images as well as donated collections are organized in the subject boxes below. Searching will help you find images throughout the site if they are not highlighted in the boxes below. The search tool is currently the primary method for researching our collection. We invite you to browse our galleries below and use the site search bar at the top of every page to find your favorite naval history photos. Most of the photos found in our collection are in the public domain and may be downloaded and used without permissions or special requirements (those which are not will be noted in the copyright section of the image description). We're always expanding the portion of our collection available online-be sure to check back for new content. Our entire holdings consist of approximately one million photographs dating as early as the Civil War. The general date range of the collection consists of mid-19 th century to the 1990s, with particular focus on the World War II era. Photographs in the collection reflect both official and unofficial naval viewpoints and consist of donations and transfers made by both the Navy and the general public. The Naval History and Heritage Command’s photo collections are related to the US Navy (or other navies when specifically associated with US involvement or historical events) with specific emphasis on ships, aviation, places, wars/events, activities, and significant individuals associated with naval history. Welcome to the online collections of the Photo Archive. We thank you for your patience and we look forward to being in our new home to better serve you. We will not be able to host any researchers or accept donations until after the move is complete. During this time, the Navy Photo Archives will attempt to answer inquiries from the public, but we will have reduced capability. This move will be ongoing through late November 2023. The Naval History and Heritage Command offices are in the process of a once-in-a-lifetime move to a new location. ![]()
