For Australian orders contact Walter Deas The Story The location of The Bomber Reef production is in New Guinea during WW11 and takes the viewer on a voyage of historic discovery. This revealing story is about a North American B-25 Mitchell bomber which was downed in 1943 on a mission over Madang, to destroy a fleet of Japanese barges. Hit by ground fire, the blazing bomber plunged into the sea. Five of the crew survived and swam to a nearby Wongat Island and were eventually captured by the Japanese. After days of maltreatment, four including another B-25 crewman were bayoneted to death. The lone survivor Major Cox was shipped to Japan and remained in captivity until the end of the war. Today, the B-25, lying in 20 metres below the surface, is a diver's dream and has become an integrated part of the ecosystem. The underwater exploration is interwoven with the history of how the B-25 came to rest on the sea floor and who discovered it. Read the Reviews and Comments |
