The earliest organized kamikaze special attack team in the air originated from the needs of the naval battle in Wright Bay in the autumn of 1944. The battle of Leitaiyi involved the landing of American troops in the Philippines, fearing to cut off Japan's energy and material transportation from Nanyang and return it to the local supply factory to replenish military supplies. The Japanese side believes that the allied actions here must be defeated. However, when the Japanese First Air Force in the Philippines was ordered to support the navy participating in the war, there were only 40 military aircraft, which could not complete the task at all. Commander-in-Chief Lieutenant General Takiyasi pointed out at the military conference on June 19, 2009 that there was no other way to think about it except to load explosives on military aircraft and attack the American aircraft carrier and paralyze it for several weeks. So at the end of 10, he recruited a group of 23 pilot apprentices from the military academy, all of whom were trained by themselves with excellent results and volunteered to join. Takijirs Nishi once asked them if they were willing to die for their country, and the players said they were very willing to join. These apprentices were about 17 years old. Later, Jiro Nishimoto asked Captain Guan if he was willing to lead such an unprecedented Kamikaze attack team. According to reports, the 23-year-old who had just been married for four months closed his eyes and bowed his head for more than ten seconds before saying "Please let me lead them". In this way, the world's first kamikaze attack team group was born. Guan became the 24th member of this team, never to see his wife again, and died in a suicide attack.
"Kamikaze Special Attack Team" is a special aviation unit in which Japanese planes attacked enemy ships in the late Pacific War. 1944, the Japanese army suffered a series of fiasco in the Pacific battlefield. In order to stop the US Navy's attack, it is determined to attack enemy ships with submarines, speedboats and planes to save the defeat. Starting from 1944 and 10, the Japanese navy set up eight kamikaze special attack teams. Kamikaze aircraft are mostly modified from light bombers or fighters, with simple equipment but a lot of explosives. 1944 10, "kamikaze commando" made its first attack in the naval battle of leyte bay, Philippines, sinking and injuring many American ships, which greatly shook the US Navy. 1April, 945, "kamikaze special forces" frequently attacked in the Okinawa campaign. In the Battle of Leyte Bay and the Battle of Okinawa, Kamikaze attacked 2550 times, of which 475 times hit the target, sinking 43 American ships including aircraft carriers and injuring about 370 ships of various types.
Barakat, Philippines—1945 In the spring, at the end of World War II, the Kamikaze Special Forces of the Japanese Navy used fighter planes as bombs to launch a suicide attack on the American aircraft carrier Missouri. Like many acts of violence during the war, Japan's actions were either strongly condemned or regarded as irrational and deviant. The extreme explanation of history textbooks is that the self-sacrifice of young Japanese pilots stems from the belief that Bushido and the Japanese emperor are gods. "Long live" or "Long live the emperor" are their battle slogans. The pilots who survived the war pointed out that their primary motive was to protect their loved ones from the war, because the situation at that time was obviously deteriorating rapidly and Japan was threatened by invasion. If they can stop the allied countries from landing, then they have achieved their goal.
Some former members of Kamikaze Special Forces expressed their sadness over the death of their comrades in the interview, and some survivors even felt guilty. 1994101On October 25th, a group of former kamikaze players and their families observed a moment of silence at the airport where the first kamikaze commandos took off to perform their duties 60 years ago (80km north of Manila).
