September 1938: The Heroic Crew of a Damaged Japanese Bomber - Anticipating the Kamikaze Tactics of WW2 This powerful image captures the moment of extraordinary bravery and sacrifice by the crew of a damaged Japanese bomber during the Second Sino-Japanese War in September 1938. With their aircraft riddled with bullets and their prospects of survival dwindling, these Japanese airmen made a fateful decision. Instead of seeking safety, they chose to crash their plane into a Chinese gun emplacement, anticipating the kamikaze tactics that would later become synonymous with the Japanese military during World War II. The Kamikaze, or "Divine Wind," was a military tactic employed by the Japanese during the final stages of the Pacific War. Pilots would intentionally crash their planes into enemy ships, causing significant damage and loss of life. However, this image predates the formal implementation of the kamikaze tactics, marking an early instance of the suicidal determination that would come to define the Japanese military's approach in the latter stages of the war. The crew's decision to sacrifice themselves in this manner was a testament to their unwavering commitment to their country and their military. Their actions demonstrate the intense loyalty and dedication that characterized the Japanese military during this period, as well as the desperation that drove the Japanese to employ such extreme measures in the face of military setbacks. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by the men and women of the armed forces during times of war. It stands as a testament to the courage and determination that defined the Second Sino-Japanese War and the broader history of military conflict.
