I invite you to take the time to watch this authentic live footage (38 minute long film of this conventional air assault on the Japanese mainland, just before A-Bombs on Nagasaki and Hiroshima! Absolutely fantastic footage of some the members of what WE consider to be THE GREATEST GENERATION! Riveting, to say the least.

 

To think of 600 B-29s all taking off to bomb Japan at one time is beyond the imagination. We hear so much about the Atom Bomb raids on Japanese cities that we forget these raids took place before that......

 

This is video from the color film archives.

 

This is spectacular live footage of the 3,000 round trip mile air assault upon the Japanese mainland, with 3 bomber wings and a host of P-51's. This is the real way to end a war.

 

No matter what war footage you ever saw before, this is the real deal and will keep your undivided attention. The P-51 & B29 footage is remarkable. The strafing runs by the P-51 pilots were incredible.

 

There are several "breaks" as the film canisters are changed, just wait for the count down
