S. BOMBERS/ Arrayed like sitting ducks, these grounded Japanese planes were welcome targets/ for bombers of the Seventh U. S. Army Air Force during an attack on Iwo Jima,/ one of the Volcano Islands only 650 miles (1,040 km.) from Japan itself./ Rising clouds of black smoke already mark several aircraft that will fly no/ more for the Rising Sun, and craters in the airstrip are a foretaste of the/ explosives yet to fall. The Volcanoes, which with the adjoining Bonins are the/ last outposts guarding Japan from the southeast, have been hit repeatedly by/ American bombers./ APPROVED BY APPROPRIATE U. S. AUTHORITY
