Troops of the Imperial Japanese 15th Army, assembled in Burma.  

Fixed Bayonets

The Japanese painted a decoy B-29 with a 300-foot wingspread, so scaled that it appears to be flying at several thousand feet, on the Tien Ho airfield in China on March 9, 1945. From a great altitude the decoy gives the illusion of a B-29 in flight with flames streaming from its port inboard engine. The Japanese figured other planes would drop down to investigate and become targets for heavy concentration of flak.

Baiting the enemy

Two fully loaded Japanese paratroopers await the order to board the aircraft for Leyte, the Philippines. The medical aid man has haversacks packed with supplies rigged as leg bags. Note, that the Japanese too, used the red cross emblem.
