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.
