@StaffanGoldschmidt i think that US army was fair with whole two japonese and germans in front of the horror that they've brougth throught the world.
simply mathematics; if the us army made them pay the equal number of lifes they destroyed (only on civilians, the soldiers were there to fight and die, it's part of the job) there would be japonese or german no more...so i think those people are very lucky to have fought against wise people commanded by wise government...
@jerryaltman You haven't a clue about what you talking about. Go study the history of color motion picture photography. Simply Google Kodak history of color motion picture photography.
@arsoys No way. I know a gunner on one of the B29's. One of the most fabulous heroes I know. imperial Japan got LESS than it deserved. Today, of course, matters differ. Japan is a great country today.
NEVER FORGET: Manila Massacre, Alexandra Hospital massacre, Sook Ching Massacre, Kalagong massacre, Laha massacre, Banka Island massacre, Parit Sulong massacre, Palawan massacre, Nan King Massacre, Three Alls Policy, Changi Prison, Hellships, Bataan Death March, Death Railway, Mass killings, Human experimentation and biological warfare, Use of chemical weapons, Preventable famine, Torture of POWs, Cannibalism, Forced labor, Comfort women, Looting STILL NO APOLOGY
@germanyforever40 Yes. That does bother me too about our Japanese friends. They have not recognized what happened. I really do like both Germany & Japan today, but it gets me very upset to see their leaders go to the war criminals tombs. Kind of bizarre, if you think about it. There's a billion Chinese who are much, much more offended than I am.
You cant say all japs are bad. Its only some of them who are like that while others are forced.I am sure their family won't wan to have the war if they had a choice.
What models had four guns per torret? Some B models had a 20mm gun and some others had thee .50cals in the tail, but most all of them had guns and torrets removed for saving weight.
The only one's I've seen had 4x50s in the 2 dorsal turrets, with the 2 ventral turrets having 2x50s each, and 2x50s + 1x20mm in the tail stinger. Still... waltzing up to a bomber with 8 50s pointed at you cannot be a good feeling!

@germanyforever40 True enough, it's just a pity that: 1) we didn't have more A-bombs and 2) they surrendered.
