Be sure to watch the entire video there are some breaks but it continues after the breaks.
AMAZING WWII FOOTAGE - B-29s over Japan with P-51s
Make sure to wait the few seconds between film sections, when it re-loads. Here is some fly-boy history. THIS IS TOTALLY AWESOME. AND IT'S ALL REAL. I strongly urge you to take the time to watch these authentic live footage clips of the air assault on the Japanese mainland, just before A-Bombs on Nagasaki and Hiroshima. Absolutely fantastic footage of what many 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 by B-29s that we forget these raids took place before that...... This is video from the color film archives, so it is of rather poor quality, compared to modern days....especially at full screen. The narration (audio) isn't too bad. Please notice it is the Army Air Corps.
This is spectacular live footage of the (3,000 mile round trip) air assault upon the Japanese mainland, with three 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 & B-29 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.
Very few of these brave men are still among the living.
MAGA!
