Flying Over Rice
Paddies |
Flooded fields of rice near Sendai. That's the Hirose River down there. The Beaver airplane was tossed around the sky and eventually made me sick and I had to vomit. I used the manila envelope that contained my records to vomit in. We tossed it out over these fields. I often wondered what the Japanese farmer might think when he found the envelope in his rice paddy. |
