Target Tokyo
About this film
A war information film on the first Marianas-based B29 raid on Tokyo, narrated by Ronald Reagan. What this film doesn't mention is this raid was a technological success, but a strategic failure. Through no fault of the air crews, few bombs hit anywhere near the target.The culprit was the jet stream which made high-level conventional bombing accuracy nearly impossible. Released in 1945 Complete print
