A member of the 345th Bombardment Group, the famed 'Air Apaches,' poses in his A-2 flight jacket bearing his squadron's insignia at a tent encampment on Ie Shima. Relocated to this small island near Okinawa in mid-1945, the 345th flew B-25 Mitchell bombers on low-level strikes against Japanese shipping and targets on the home islands during the final, intense months of the Pacific War.
