Hickam airfield? Henderson field?

 

Both wrong

 

Im gonna go out on a limb and say North Korea xD

 

Also wrong

 

need another hint

 

Japanese

 

Rabaul? Okinawa? Tinian?

 

Are you just browsing through google looking for info?

None of them were right btw.

 

Im off to bed now, so you will have to do without my help for a while.

 

alright then....I'm not browsing lol....i just guessed....

 

Well, good luck on your guessing.

 

haha ok...

 

Iwo Jima - in the possession again of the Japanese SDF. Visitors must be approved by the JSDF.

 

Thats probably it..

 

i didnt think iwo was that green. lo

 

It is Iwo Jima. Notice the black sandy beach.

 

Yea it is iwo if you look really close you see it's in a hill.

 

Iwo Jima is correct!

 

OK here are some clues:

1. The final mission of WWII was launched from here. Not the atomic bonbs, but a mission that went
weeks later and was key in forcing the Japanese surrender.

2. Low on fuel and trying to make a one-shot landing on a field atop a 500-foot high plateau, many planes simply hit the side of the island.

3. See Google Earth image.


To answer correctly, what is the island and what type of aircraft is referred to in #2?

 

I know that mission to bomb the oil refinary I forgot the island...... Uhhhhhhh Guam,spuan?
