Re: Japanese Perspective

Top shelf post my friend. Some of this I knew but I had no where near as much detail and I thank you.

An account I read on this, must have been 30 years ago and in a not too reputable magazine, was titled "No Choice But Be A Hero In Your Zero".

A tacky title, I agree.

In it the author said that planes used for such missions were rigged with explosives so that should a pilot try to land rather than carry out his orders, the plane would explode.

I have never heard this since.

Was there was any truth to this?
