Starboard wing

If you look closely, you can see Japanese characters on the cylinder looking thing on the wing.

Then up to the boat and back to Neco Marine and lunch at the Drop Off Bar and Grill.

Thank you for these pics and taking the time to share them with us.

I dove Truk in '94 and it was very exciting. I suspect you'd enjoy that.

After lunch and once we got cleaned up, we visited the Belau National Museum, which has a great history of the islands and the various occupation forces it has encountered.

No photos inside. There was some war debris outside.

Would appear to be half of a mine. Or a WWII grill.

Twin 25 mm

inside very rusted

A couple of other guns

Getting late in the day so we drive around some.

It is now Sunday Jan 22, the day we board our boat for a week of diving. In the morning we have time for one more trip. Once again we drive North across the Japan-Palau Friendship Bridge to the large island of Babeldaob in search of more Japanese ruins.

Japanese Communication Center, a very muddy site with the remains of antennas laying on the ground, along with a building.

Once again they want cash. I'd pay if someone was here.

It's a mud pit so no thanks

Looks like American air visited

So we head back to Koror to pickup our stuff and onto Malakal Island to board our home for the next week. The Rock islands Aggressor.

Fascinating, thank you for sharing.

Brings back happy memories of a visit to Pelelieu. Good times.

Possibly an outrigger or part of the carriage frame from an artillery piece is my guess.

Edit: In fact I'm sure it is, after I originally posted, I noticed part of the wheel sticking out the rubble in the back.
