E8N1 "Dave" punished and survived

Thu May 28, 2009 4:55 pm

February 14, 1938, 138 days from the start of the China War, the E8N "Dave" piloted by Lt Iwaki, Kunihiro, survived an aerial combat probably by a miracle. It was finally shown to the public at the Naval Museum.

Wow! With the number of "arrow strikes" around the cockpit area it is an amazing return! Any word on who or what shot him up?

I didn't know the Japanese were attacking the Navaho!

Anybody remember the ICB Arrow from F-Troop?
