U.S. Army Air Force (USAAF) soldiers wearing flight suits board bomber aircraft from a newly established U.S. position in the Aleutian Islands, 1942, during WW2. A soldier pokes his head out a window in the cockpit of one of the aircraft. Bomber aircraft take off from a runway constructed from marston mat (pierced steel planking), mountains in the background. Scenes of the bomber aircraft in the sky, taken from an on-board camera. Close up shots of gunners at their positions. The bombers fly over the foggy islands toward the Japanese base on Kiska Island. A Japanese warship appears in the water far below, one of the U.S. gunners strafes the deck of the ship. Close up of machine gun firing at the boat. Now over Kiska, bomb bays open and American bombs are unloaded. Smoke and explosions far below. A second load of bombs drops toward the Japanese base in slow motion. Wide shot of the target, now covered in streaks of smoke. Shot of the American bomber aircraft in the sky, turning to head back to base.
