Chapter 1718 Danbo!(1/2)
On the night of March 8, the frequent takeoffs and landings of planes were still so noisy that Wei Ran could not get a complete sleep.
Fortunately, because of the extra mosquito net, at least the mosquitoes were blocked out. In contrast, Brad slept until dawn as if he was not affected.
On the morning of the 9th, everyone from Wei Ran to Brad felt the atmosphere of an impending battle.
As they watched, truckloads of aerial bombs were transported around the bombers.
Just like the ammunition we saw and photographed yesterday, these aerial bombs are mainly M47 incendiary bombs and E46 cluster incendiary bombs.
Especially the Dumbo not far away, all the E46 cluster incendiary bombs transported around it.
It is through this small detail that Weihan has confirmed that this bomber will probably serve as a happy barbecue mission!
"There will definitely be a bombing mission tonight"
Brad said, but he had already jumped into the jeep and disappeared quickly.
Seeing this, Wei Ran didn't ask any questions. He just walked up to Dumbo with his camera, greeted him warmly, and pressed the shutter after getting permission.
"I am Victor, a freelance journalist"
Wei Ran asked while filming, "Gentlemen, would you mind introducing yourself?"
"I'm tail gunner Martin"
A young man who looked about the same age as Grant took the initiative to shake Wei Ran's hand and said bluntly, "You and your friends are welcome to ride the Dumbo."
“Thank you for your enthusiasm”
Wei Ran took the initiative to share a cigarette with the other party, "How about introducing your friends to me and then letting me take a group photo of you?"
"certainly"
Martin waved to the other four people who were carrying artillery shells, and while they were walking over, he said, "The five of us are all gunners. Steven has a cross tattoo on his arm, Robert is holding a cigar, and wearing a
The one in the toad mirror is Jerry, and the last one who keeps scratching his crotch is Dean. Remember not to shake hands with him, he has an STD."
"Wait a minute and I'll put my finger into your asshole!" Dean gave Martin the middle finger angrily.
After greeting the four of them in turn, Wei Ran motioned them to take a stance behind the bombs and asked bluntly, "Is there going to be a bombing mission soon?"
"That's how it should be"
Robert, who was holding a cigar, said before Weiran pressed the shutter, "Captain and the others have been called to receive the mission briefing."
"I haven't seen your bombardier yet" Wei Ran asked.
"His name is Ryan, and you'll have a chance to meet him."
Martin said, "Victor, how about taking some solo photos for us? I want to send them to my wife."
"Of course, it's my honor." Wei Ran happily agreed.
After hearing this, Martin immediately sat on the aerial bombs piled up on the wall and wrote on a cluster incendiary bomb with chalk, "For my wife Jennifer and our little angel Judy, for peace and justice."
Putting the chalk in his pocket, Martin sat next to the aerial bomb and showed a bright smile to Wei Ran, "Please make your shots more accurate."
"It's better to put it directly in their assholes," Steven joked as Weiran pressed the shutter.
"In addition to needing good accuracy, Mr. Tojo Sakuraji also needs a big enough asshole."
Dean said, and subconsciously scratched his own crotch, "Damn it, aren't there any clean recruiting women on this island?"
"Perhaps we can apply to Mr. Tojo Sakuraji"
As he spoke, Robert also took out a piece of chalk and wrote on a cluster incendiary bomb, "Exchange incendiary bombs for some young women without sexually transmitted diseases."
"It needs to be more beautiful," Jerry said. He also took out the chalk and added a word on the cluster incendiary bomb.
"Gentlemen"
Wei Ran took a solo photo of Steven, who was also sitting on the aerial bomb, "Can't we blow up everyone and then go home and find some clean blonde girls?"
"Oh——! Victor! You are such a genius!"
Jerry snapped his fingers, chose a new cluster incendiary bomb and wrote "Burn you to death on behalf of God! Love comes from Saipan."
"Do you want to send some blessings?" Martin waited for Wei Ran to finish taking photos of Steven and handed him a piece of red chalk.
"certainly"
Wei Ran took the chalk, thought for a moment, and wrote the words "I have an acquaintance in Tokyo" in traditional Chinese characters on a cluster incendiary bomb. Then he chose a suitable angle to mark the incendiary bomb and the people behind him.
Dumbo took a group photo.
——Even if he knew it, this photo might not stay at all.
"Is this a Chinese character?" Steven asked.
"Do you know Chinese characters?" Wei Ran looked at him in surprise.
"I don't know him, but I have a Chinese friend, a very good friend."
Steven also rolled up his sleeves as he spoke, showing off a tattoo on his arm, which is the word "hair". Behind the word, there is a quarter-sized Yao chicken pattern.
"This is the pattern my friend chose for me. He said I would become a rich man." Steven said proudly.
"What's your friend's name?"
Wei Ran asked curiously, "Is he also on Saipan?"
"His name is Luke, Luke Lu, or Luke Lu. His last name seems to have special requirements for the tone, but I can't always tell the difference."
Steven put down his sleeves to cover the tattoo, "He went to China three years ago as a pilot. I haven't heard from him since then."
As he spoke, Steven picked up the chalk and wrote the words "For Luke" in English on an aerial bomb, and then skillfully wrote the word "fa", "That bastard, my sister has always been
I was waiting for him, but he didn’t even send a letter back.”
"He will definitely come back alive."
Wei Ran sighed. He didn't know whether to sigh that the world was too big or that the world was too small.
"It's my turn!"
As he spoke, Jerry also sat next to the wall piled with aerial bombs. Then he took the chalk Robert handed him and drew a lifelike dick on a cluster incendiary bomb, and wrote next to it: "
Please open your mouth."
A solo photo was also taken of the musician. Robert also sat next to the aerial bomb and wrote on a cluster incendiary bomb, "Dropped on behalf of Sailor 1st Class Philip Hanks of the USS Arizona."
This incendiary bomb."
"That's my brother"
After Robert waited for the Guardian to take a photo of him, he said, "He served on the USS Arizona, and he happened to be on the ship the day Pearl Harbor was attacked.
Victor, no matter when you set off on the Dumbo, you must come back alive, and then help me develop the photo. I will send it to my parents, as well as my brother’s wife and children.”
"I will come back to help you develop the photos," Wei Ran promised seriously.
"My turn friends"
As Dean spoke, he actually unbuttoned his pants and pulled them down below his knees, then used a knife to cut off his own underwear and tied it to the tail of a cluster incendiary bomb.
And he, with his lower body naked, shook his ailing second brother, and stepped on the bomb with one foot.
"I never thought that one day I would click the shutter on a man's sick second brother," Wei Ran joked while looking for an angle.
"Please be sure to bring our Dumbo" Dean said with a big grin, "I want to compete with our Dumbo to see who is bigger."
"At least Dumbo is healthier than you."
Wei Ran teased the other person while slightly moving the camera angle to satisfy Dean's bad taste.
"When the war is over, I will help Dumbo introduce a busty girlfriend."
Dean said while putting on his pants, "Victor, do you want to go inside Dumbo?"
"If possible," Wei Ran said.
"Of course, you are already one of us." Martin said, having already walked under the nose of the plane, and skillfully opened the door ladder.
"Wait a moment"
As Wei Ran spoke, he put new film on the camera in his hand and casually handed the finished film to Robert.
Following Martin as he climbed into the cabin, the former enthusiastically introduced the front and passenger seats and the bomb-dropping position, as well as the positions of the wireless operator and mechanic in the back.
"Climbing over from here is our territory," Martin said, having climbed along a narrow passage to the bomb bay.
Climbing over with the other party, before Weiran could stand still, he heard Martin pointing to a saddle-shaped metal stand next to the bomb drop port and introducing, "Arthur took us to install this last night. Your aerial camera can
Fix it on top, and whoever takes pictures here must be connected to at least two safety belts."
Following the direction of the opponent's fingers and looking at the two safety belts hanging above his head, Wei Ran nodded, and followed the opponent to visit several turrets that had been removed due to mission requirements, as well as the only remaining tail turret on the B29.
“This is also a great location with great views”
Martin introduced, "Robert was originally in charge of this place. This is his private collection of Cokes and cigars. No matter you or your friends, no matter who is here, you can enjoy them on the way back."
"Thanks"
Wei Ran thanked him again, and at the same time saw Brad driving back from a distance.
"My friend is back." Wei Ran pointed outside the window.
"Ryan seems to be in his car too, let's get out."
