Lieutenant Commander Takashige Egusa was one of the Imperial
Japanese Navy's most skillful and influential dive-bomber pilots.
He led an attack force against Pearl Harbor, calmly circling his
special flame-red Aichi dive bomber before selecting his target.
Assaults on the deadly gun batteries of Wake Island followed, as
well as air support for the invasion of Ambon. Badly burned at
Midway, Egusa return to duty, only to be killed on his final
mission. As one Japanese officer said, He was the 'God of
Dive-Bombing. Fully placed in historical context and backed by a
wealth of detail from archives, family records, photographs, and
memories of contemporaries, this full story of Egusa's bravery,
leadership qualities and illustrious career come to life.
