This is my first post on this forum, so please be kind.
My main focus is ww2 IJN, mainly flight gear, and was wondering if anyone knew where I could get additional info on IJN airgroups, specifically the 341st kokutai. Books, internet sites, japanese references, etc, anything...
I've been trying to learn more about this helmet, and recently got a break. I had posted this label of a type 2 flight helmet label on another forum, and was told that the kanji "lion unit" meant it was the 341st kokutai, which was one of the first all N1K2-J (George/Shinden) units.
Can't seem to find any lists online. I'd really like to see if this particular pilot was listed in the rolls.
Thanks in advance!
