An account of the resource
"Jap Betty Bomber Crew being photographed by 2 photographers taken by Dick Baxter, the third photographer, on Ie Shima while Jap diplomats were in Manila - 17th Tact Recon Sqdn" From "Darkroom Soldier": "Mitsubishi and Crew. Under a hot noon sun, Military Police (right) guard one of the surrender planes as a photographer (left) crouches to record the crew of the parked Mitsubishi Bomber (G6MIL2). After landing, Japanese pilots and mechanics inspected their planes for engine problems. Hill's fellow soldier observed that 'They are well-dressed, neat, and clean, and their attitude would make one think that they had won the war rather than lost it.' As they worked on their planes, 'they paid very little attention to the horde of [American] men eagerly stretching to get a glimpse of them.' These pilots and mechanics stayed on Ie Shima until the envoys returned from Manila two days later. Eventually, mechanical problems with both planes would lead to delays, repairs, and a ditching in the sea en route to Tokyo." ("Darkroom Soldier" caption authored by George Venn)

"Excited US Soldiers awaiting the arrival of the 2 Japanese 'Betty Bombers,' bringing the Jap envoy members to be transferred to a US C-54 for the long flight to Manila" From "Darkroom Soldier": "Surrender Bombers. The afternoon of August 19, all soldiers had been ordered to stay away from Birch Airstrip, the main white coral airstrip on Ie Shima, but as one of Hill's comrades wrote, 'This was too big a thing to miss, and from one end to the other were thousands of Dogfaces lined along the edges of the runway.' They were all waiting for the Japanese Surrender Delegation to land en route to Manila. Harumi Takeuchi, a Japanese translator aboard one of the planes, recalled 'As our plane approached the runway, we saw what seemed to be thousands of American soldiers forming a solid ring around the field. It was obvious that this was not security, but mere curiosity. But so many!" ("Darkroom Soldier" caption authored by George Venn)

Two Japanese Mitsubishi 'Betty' bombers were to be painted white with huge green crosses on wing tip and fuselage. These two planes were escorted to the landing strip on Ie Shima by our P-38's and B-25's. I was able to get photographs of these planes. The Japanese envoys were transferred to one of our big C-54's for the long flight to Manila." ("Darkroom Soldier" caption authored by George Venn)
