Our exhibition, The Men Will Always Be There: Edward Steichen and the Naval Photographic Unit, is open through December 17. It showcases dozens of pictures that capture emotion and bring the ship, artifacts, and battles to life. Steichen was a pioneer of fashion photography who served in the US Navy during World War II as Director of the Naval Aviation Photographic Unit. The government used images from the Naval Photographic Unit to draw support and tell the story of the war back on the American homefront. Steichen changed the way the military documented the war. He captured the spirit of the men and women who made great sacrifices to defend our freedom. The exhibition is located on the USS Yorktown and is included in a general admission ticket. #PatriotsPoint #MountPleasant #ExperienceMP #CharlestonSC #Charleston #CHSToday #ExploreCharleston #DiscoverSC #SouthCarolina #Photography
