Mark,
Interesting video with sound added. These boys look like
they’re having some fun !
Rare color gun camera films show AAF fighters engaging
Japanese aircraft and targets on the ground near the end of World War II in the
Pacific. The film is silent; actual air-cooled .50-caliber machine gun
sounds and additional audio were added. Some viewers liked the audio, some
muted it, and a few complained about it. We have a hard time figuring out the
fuss -- if you want it the way it originally was, simply mute it and enjoy it
your way. And we get it that some of you don't like this audio. It was what we
had available back when this was produced, but we are looking at other options
for future productions.
And to answer other questions that crop up -- yes, this is
color, and no, they did not always use black-and-white film in gun camera
magazines. If you have seen any of this footage elsewhere in black-and-white,
that is because after the original was shot in color, it could be used in other
black-and-white productions of the era; it was much easier to copy and process
black and white than color film. We have noticed this as we research archival
film holdings. Some color footage shows up elsewhere in black and white. And
yes, this is Pacific footage; no, you don't see German aircraft in here even if
you think some of the airframes resemble them. And yes, Japan is verdant and green
like this, and AAF P-51s were making ground attacks on Japan proper in the
summer of 1945.
