342-FH-3A-42747-89271AC 19th bg A 19th Bomb Group Boeing B-29 which had its controls shot away while encountering heavy flak over Tokyo, made an emergency crash landing at Iwo Jima in the Bonin Islands on 10 March 1945. Nine Superforts landed here after the raid, all of which would have not made their home base. The fox holes in the foreground are typical of terrain around the strip.
