Description:Chaw Sa Myat recollects the air war with Japan that he witnessed in 1942. In this recording, he said that "At that time, the British invited the Americans to come and fight in the Japanese war. There were also British. There were also Afro-Americans. There were also Australians. There were also Chinese. "And then they fought. Those who were soldiers came and fought in aeroplanes. At that time the aeroplanes, the Japanese aeroplanes, attacked. Many of them were flying up in the sky. On our Indian people, big bombs were dropped, using machine guns. "The aeroplane was slowing flying, but it didn’t hit. The aeroplane passed by, and then with an explosion, smoke and fire came out. They passed above Ledo. One was hit. It was hit beyond the big forest in the mountains. So one Japanese plane came down. The Japanese aeroplane came from that side, and went to the north, went to the east like that."
