B-29による空襲を調べられる方へ編

▼和歌山市域への空襲については、基本的には下表にしたがって翻訳してきました。出所をメモし忘れたのですが、戦災遺族会関係の資料です。

▼上表のうち、3月4日は2月4日の誤りです。また、これまで翻訳してきた報告書に見える通り、B-29は爆撃の行き帰りに結構な数の爆弾を投棄処分しています。管理人も橋本市内のある方から、焼夷弾が1本落ちて山火事になったことがあると聞いたことがあります。余計なお世話かもしれませんが、今後こうしたマイナーな空襲を調べられる奇特な方に、第21爆撃集団のB-29によるミッション一覧を以下に列挙しておきますので参考になさって下さい。なお、搭乗員の回顧録を読むと、気象観測機(下表には載っていません)も爆弾を投下していたようです。奥が深いものです。


1.要暗記事項

▼ミッション一覧を見る前に、日本列島に対する一連の爆撃を行ったB-29の部隊編制を確認しておきます。B-29を運用した部隊は「爆撃集団―爆撃航空団―爆撃航空群」というありきたりな階層を形成しています。爆撃航空群はさらにいくつかの爆撃中隊(スコードロン)に分けられているはずですが、この中隊に関しては管理人の知識がまだ及んでおりません。なお、ミッション一覧をこのページに掲載した分は太字で示しています。

(5)第313爆撃航空団第9爆撃航空群:

▼この爆撃航空群のミッションナンバーは、基本的には偵察やスーパーダンボ、P-51エスコート等の支援任務は「Special Mission」としてナンバリングせず、純粋な爆撃任務のみをカウントしているように見えます。この爆撃航空群は「Special Mission」が他航空群に比べて異常に多いことから、それを主に担当する部隊であったのかもしれません。なお、ミッションナンバー72以降の「power display」はさきの「show of force」と同じ意味であると考えられます。
