U.S. Fliers Bomb Two Jap Bases

United States bombers take off from bases in the arctic to blast the remaining Japanese on Kiska Island in the Aleutians. Over the enemy base, tons of huge projectiles drift lazily to earth guided to their mark by the famous American bombsight. When the big eggs land they explode like clouds and one more Jap base is wiped out.

Somewhere in China, another American air force under General Chennault maps a raid on Japanese held Hong Kong. Fighter planes escort the bombers as the squadron flies high over Asia.

Hong Kong and they're after the Kowloon Naval Base. The Chinese cameraman who made these pictures knows it well. Hong Kong is his native city. Now he returns to help rid it of the Japs.

Back to their base in China, safe and sound, American pilots get a warm welcome. They blasted the Japs from Hong Kong to Kiska.
