WWII sites

Sister Sampson wanted us to see a few additional WWII sites before they leave. So we headed out to the Lunga River and just past there we went down the hill to a tunnel that was dug and used to treat injured soldiers. It was pretty interesting to go inside it and think about what it was used for. Today, it is a shortcut from one village to another. If only the walls could talk.

We then went to a sight where there were several airplanes. One of the planes, if you looked in the cockpit, you could see that the exhaust pipe went right through the cockpit. These planes were some of the ones that were pretty effective against the Japanese planes.
