Photo Caption:

Head keeper Arthur S. Strout about to enter the lantern room at Halfway Rock Lighthouse. During World War II, keeper Strout kept the light shining at Halfway Rock Lighthouse. Government reports of the time indicated “that because of the increased amount of naval traffic plying eastern coastal waters the importance of the light that gleams from Halfway Rock Lighthouse is greater than ever.” (Lighthouse Digest archives.)
