Type 97 Carrier Attack Bomber (Kate) takes-
off from either the Zuikaku or Shokaku.
This is second attack wave, note cheering
crewmen,who must by yelling "Banzai,banzai"

Note:
Japanese Naval Ensign, with its disk of the
sun and sixteen red rays, this was flown
by the Japanese Navy until the end of WWII.
And was later re-adopted by the Japanese
Maritime Self-Defense Force in 1954.
