It was then only natural that the pilots who attempted to shoot these high-flying Boeing bombers out of the skies over Tokyo, Nagasaki, Hiroshima and Kobe should become known as the elite of the Japanese Army Air Force. 'B-29!' No other term struck such terror in the hearts of the Japanese public during World War 2 than this single, most-hated name
