A dramatic photograph taken from the attack on the Imperial Japanese Navy cruiser Izuzu near Sumba Island in the Flores Sea on 6 April 1945.   One of the two 24 Squadron RAAF Liberators lost in the mission is shown here, on fire from the front to almost the tail of the aircraft.  Intense anti-aircraft fire and fighter protection were common hazards in attacks on Japanese shipping.
