Photograph; black-and-white photograph of Henry Strauss on SC 668 (built 1942) underway from Key West, FL to Guantanamo, Cuba, circa 1943; Strauss is lying down on a folding cot near what appears to be the aft railing of SC 668, hands behind head; from Henry Strauss transcript in Sound Archives: "This is on route, Key West to Guantanamo, which was one of our runs. And I was usually sea sick from the time we left Key West til we got to Guantanamo. Just, I guess, because of the shape of the sea compared to the shape of the boat because I was never seasick before or after that."
