A commendation from Rear Admiral J. Perry to the officers and men of the Fleet Air Wing ONE upon the surrender of Japan. Wonderfully written. Mentions how this wing was bombed at Pearl Harbor and ended the war within site of the Imperial Palace in Tokyo; traveled every mile of the \"long devious\" route to Japan; the \"unprecedented\" assignment at Okinawa; how \"yours were the first Allied search and photographic planes to fly over many parts of the Empire.\" And more. About 13\" x 8\". Good condition with minor wrinkling at the top as shown. Has been folded. Displays really well. A wonderful piece of history and an awesome addition to any collection. I ship every day the post office is open with your item safely packed in a box for shipping. Provenance: From the estate of a Navy Air Combat Officer and seaplane pilot who entered the war just in time to be stationed off the coast of Japan,preparing for the invasion, when the atomic bomb was dropped.
