The Crew #16 from the B-25B "Bat out of Hell" was captured by the Japanese, and two crew members were executed by them.
I decided to make this version after reading the book "Wounded Tiger", which tells the story of the Link beetween Mitsuo Fuchida, which lead the Pearl Harbor attack, and Jacob DeShazer which was one of the capture crew member, and survived the war. Both men became Christian after war and evangelized Japan. An amazing story.
