![]() 14th ASA Website |
This is THE definitive Hakata/Brady website. Well worth digging into. Lots and lots of GREAT information. |
![]() Gannosu |
This is the small town between Brady/Hakata and Fukuoka. It was off-limits when the Americans first came to this area. The Japanese had a fighter/seaplane base here during World War II. |
![]() Shikano-shima |
This is the "island" at the end of the peninsula. There is a causeway between the mainland and the island, but it used to be an island ("Shima" means island in Japanese). |
![]() Saitozaki |
The town between Hakata/Brady and the end of the peninsula. You can still catch a ferry to Fukuoka here. |
![]() Hakata/Brady Today |
There is now a major theme park here, kind of the "Seaworld" of southern Japan. Very little remains of the old American installations. |
![]() A Closed Base |
An interesting look at what was left in 1978, six years after Hakata/Brady closed. Wes Injerd took most of the pictures. |
