This annotated scrapbook page from a 312th Bomb Group veteran documents a low-level bombing run over the Wewak airfield complex in New Guinea. The handwritten note explains that a small 250-pound bomb with a delayed fuse struck the ground near a parked Japanese 'Betty' bomber and bounced rather than detonating on impact, allowing the attacking aircrew to clear the area safely. Such firsthand annotations offer valuable insight into the tactics and ordnance used during Fifth Air Force strikes on Japanese airfields in 1943. Project: 218561
