Caption In the most relentless pre-invasion "softening-up" "bombing processes of the Pacific war, 7th AAF Consolidated B-24 Liberators carried out round-the-clock missions against strategic Iwo Jima. Here 390 one hundred pound bombs burst string-after-string practically on top of each other, exactly in the cross of the airstrip. This graphic picture shows the pin--point precision of the 7th AAF as 11 bombardiers from 11 Liberators place their bomb load directly on center of the assigned target.
