B5N2 Kate Tail 302 left wing at Vunakanau Airfield near Rabaul
Likely, this photo was taken on either September 18, 1945 or October 14, 1945 before the final flight to Jacquinot Bay Airfield to surrender the aircraft. Japanese Navy personnel are pushing the aircraft into position. The left wing shows heavy wear on the inner wing root and the left flap appears to be unpainted fabric or recently resurfaced.
