just a few comments on the combat photos been shown the first one showing what is claimed to be a japanese mitsubishi is a US A20 HAVOC been caught by anti aircraft fire over a japanese supply base at kokas dutch new guinea
after been hit the A20 dove into mac cluer gulf and was destroyed and the wingman escaped these photos were taken from a THIRD A20
the B24 was on a raid over central germany when a direct flak hit on the fuel tanks turned it into a fireball what you think is the remains of a fighter are bombs spilling from the bomb bay as the aircraft breaks up
the reference i am using is time life publication america in the air war the pubiications contain many photos and stories of pilots and their aircraft a great tribute to there memory
