Junyo
(Japanese aircraft carrier, 1942)

View looking aft from high on the ship's island. Taken at Sasebo, Japan, 19 October 1945. U.S. Army soldiers of the 32nd Division are on the flight deck.
Note the fore-and-aft flight deck planking; curious device on the landing signal platform; Type 3 radar antenna on the mainmast and radio-direction-finder "loop" in the foreground.
Several HA-201 class submarines are on the beach in the distance. That directly off Junyo's stern is HA-230.
