Did you actually find this picture to confirm or are you going by the little note on the picture itself?

I can't picture this as a Devastator.... the engine cowling wasn't that streamlined and sleek. I'm puzzled!

My old Piczo site seems to be gone, so no more Navajo Nation pics

Oops... spoke too soon...

Still, this doesn't look like the rear mount guns that I could find on all the pix that I looked at. Didn't the TBD-1 carry twin 30's in back?
