For the past few months, U.S. Navy veteran Arthur Moss has been working with his daughter to rediscover and preserve the past. 

During the Korean War, Moss served two tours of duty in the Navy in 1951 and 1952. In his second tour, he served as a photographer on Task Force 77. Each day, he manned the deck of the USS Bon Homme Richard and captured the action with a large Fairchild K-20 camera.
