Research - TBY-2 Radio

This radio was developed for the Navy in the late 1930s and used prominently by the Marine Corps. It was prominent in the film "Windtalkers".
They were often used as ship-to-shore radios and could be found on the vessels docked at Pearl Harbour. This was the reason for their inclusion, they were an iconic piece of equipment for the U.S. Navy and as such I felt that it should be included in a presentation that focuses upon the tragedy that befell, primarily, the soldiers of this branch of the American Armed Forces.
