The Tree Top Terror! That’s what Japanese ground forces called Marine Corps PBJ and Army Air Force B-25 medium bombers as they rampaged at very low altitudes across the Southwest Pacific from 1943 onward.

Come experience living history as CAF SoCal conducts a presentation on the varying tactics and armament used by PBJ units as they constantly adjusted to operational needs and enemy counter-tactics. We’ll also open our magnificent PBJ-1J, which took 23 years to restore to flying condition, so you can tour the inside of the aircraft
