This book was the first one, that really sparked my curiosity on USN and USAAF operations against then-Japanese Kurile Islands. Back then, the author won my instant favor for the fact, that he traveled to Kamchatka and Shimushu twice. Later he generously helped me with some of my multiple questions. Thank you, Ralph!

Good pictorial reference book, except for the cover art. Lt Littleton of VPB-136 shot down a Ki-43 of the 54th Sentai, not a Ki-44 as mistakenly claimed by some!
