Far Eastern Liaison Office produced propaganda leaflets dropped on Japanese forces in New Guinea

These leaflets come from a large photo and document grouping of a B-25 crew chief of the 345th Bomb Group.

The first leaflet is titled "To the Japanese troops" Front and back contain the same text.

The second leaflet is titled "Treatment of Japanese Prisoners" The back is blank.

The translations are taken from the Australian War Memorial collection.

B-24D "Sooper Drooper" returns from a mission - Pacific Theater ca. 1943

Scans from my collection.

At that time Sooper Drooper, Serial Number 42-40515, was part of the 531st Bomb Squadron, 380th Bomb Group.

Sometime after the photos were take it would receive a nose turret. It eventually was transferred to the 43rd Bomb Group in late 1943.

Of note is the overpainted early insignia and the then newly adapted stars and bars insignia in the back.

The photos were taken by a B-25 crew chief of the 345th Bomb Group, while the unit was stationed at Port Moresby, New Guinea.
