B-29/P-51 Actual WWII Footage

Here are some great shots of War II using B-29 Bombers and P-51 Mustangs to destroy targets in Japan. A 36 minute film, including thumbnail clips. This is spectacular live footage of the 3,000 mile round trip air assault on the Japanese mainland with three bomber wings and a host of P-51's. No matter what war footage you've seen before, this is the real deal and will keep your undivided attention. The strafing runs by the P-51 flyers at the end were incredible. A great compilation of combat footage from WWII. The beginning is the planning and preparation for the bombing raids on Tokyo. At about 15-16 minutes they are running into flak as they prepare to hit the targets.

This was a time when men definitely were MEN! It is obvious when you see our stockpiles on the islands that our industrial production sealed the fate of our enemies. We don't send a lot of our officers to ICAF (Aeronautical fatigue), but that course might be as valuable as Air War College to the successful prosecution of a war effort.

A 36 minute gem for those who at this time of year would like to trace the dots from Pearl Harbor in 1941 back to Japan in 1945 -- the Last Bomb. This is amazing footage. Notice the actual photos of the spent shell casings streaming out of the bottom of the P51s. Click below:
