Japanese Research Project
Research by the Pacific Wreck Database into Japanese
history, wrecks and veterans, present for the first time for english
readers. Few materials or source documents
from WWII are ever available to english readers. This project is support by donations to
the Pacific Wreck Database.
This
project will include research not only into aircraft, but also unto
other aspects of WW2 Japan such as tanks and Japanese
soldier's stories. There is so much information available in
Japanese books that western researchers have never had access to. Our
goal
is to provide information to interested parties and to translate
japanese articles of interest.
