In 1942, Japanese pilot Nobuo Fujita bombed the Brookings area. Later, he returns and the friendship and exchanges have a deep effect.About this Event
In 1942, Japanese pilot Nobuo Fujita catapulted his seaplane off of a submarine, flew over the southern Oregon coast, and became the only pilot to bomb the U.S. mainland during WWII. He never dreamed he would one day be invited back to the region, where he would begin a lifelong friendship with the people of Brookings, Oregon. SAMURAI IN THE OREGON SKY chronicles how Mr. Fujita came to refer to his former target as his “second home.” Director Ilana Sol will be present for a post-screening Q&A.
