English: *Topic of this photo: Air raids on Hong Kong by the allied powers on 16 October 1944. At the center of this photo, Japanese-held Kowloon Docks is on fire. To the left of the fire, a Japanese plane, probably a Mitsubishi A6M Zero (Zeke), is fighting back. In this mission, the US Fourteenth Air Force sent out 28 B-24 heavy bombers, 33 P-51 fighter-bombers and 18 P-40 fighters to Japanese-occupied Hong Kong.[1] These planes most probably departed from Kweilin Airfield, 530 km (330 miles) northwest from Hong Kong. For the original photo wihthout annotated, see File:1944-10-16 US air raids on Japanese-occupied Hong Kong 1.jpg.
