  • [appx date] A Japanese Fu-Go balloon bomb was recovered from northern Alaska's Brooks Range. After nearly ten years of exposure to the Arctic weather, the balloon remained in remarkably good condition. The paper envelope was "so durable that it could not be torn apart by two men pulling at it" and the 5kg incendiary bomb was still "highly explosive." This balloon was the farthest north of any balloon found. ww2dbase [Fu-Go | Brooks Range | DS]
