I would like to use the photo of Azusa Special Attach unit in a book several professors from the University of Guam are writing on Ulithi. The book is designed as a way of giving back our research on Ulithi (including historical research) to the people of Ulithi. May I have your requirements to obtain permission to include and preferred acknowledgement?
