I've held one of these hats in my own hands. I knew an older gentlemen when I was a kid who served in the Pacific theater during WWII flying transport planes. After taking one island (sadly don't remember which) that didn't have quarters for all the troops, he was sleeping under the wings of his plane. He told me a kamikaze slammed into the next plane over, but due to some user or mechanical error, there was no explosion thankfully. After the higher-ups inspected the crash and decided to leave it til morning, he snuck over and took the kamikaze's hat as a souvenir. It was incredibly warm and had japanese writing on the inside. I'm not sure how many hats actually worn by kamikazes have survived to today, but I imagine this was a once in a lifetime opportunity for me to hold this bit of history in my own hands.

I do seem to remember him saying he had it translated. I think he said one of the words was the city where the hat was manufactured, but I could be misremembering that. Sorry I don't have more.

Kazuo Odachi survived and he wrote a book about his experience as a Kamikaze Pilot. The book is The Last Kamikaze and I think people should read about how Kamikaze missions we're conducted and what led to it being implemented in Imperial Japan. It wasn't all that glamorous but It certainly isn't what most people think it was.

A huge reason for this tactic even existing was less about a cultural view on dying with honor and more based on a lack of qualified pilots by the end of the war. The Mitsubishi Zero was an incredibly versatile plane, but it was not an easy one to keep control of during combat. Many inexperienced pilots essentially did their best to do as much damage as possible before crashing and then just allowed it to happen when they did.

@no-lifenoah7861

on top of this, the Zero was outmatched by Allied planes with support by their carriers (Japan lost all their carriers at Midway) meaning that in pretty much all circumstances the plane would go down regardless of strategy employed. Kamikaze pilots were using the most effective strategy that would lose the plane because all strategies would lose the plane.

A LOT of things wrong here, gotta be honest... 1. No, they expected to come back unless they found a valuable target. They usually got to fly at least a couple of sorties 2. Noone opens the canopy to get a better view... It was used in movies so the audience cand better see the pilot's face and expression. In real life, you usually keep it open during taxi to keep the cabin cool, or you unlatch it if you make a landing outside the airfield, so if the fuselage bends it doesn't block you(this is still done with general aviation planes) 3. Helmets were and still are used to protect crew from the cold(it's freezing cold regardless of the canopy at altitude in an unpressurised airplane), noise, from hitting your head on something in the cabin, or from small shrapnel

This is a reference to an engineering channel, isn't it?

Kamikaze instructors be like: "Watch carefully im only going to do this once"

"Crashing in the wrong place" A rarely said sentence

“It protects their eyesight so that they can die more efficiently.”

I'm sorry, but with that ending quote, I had to let out a tiny childish giggle because it was to be expected, but I didn't.

I had the same thought about wearing helmets while zip lining.

Ever since I was a preteen, that second point, about avoiding hitting their heads while in flight, has been what I've been saying. Glad to finally be validated.

They cared about their pilots so much🥰😘

Actually they had 9 chances to kamikaze, they wouldn't be executed if they return (because of lack of pilots and not finding the target)

American Anti-aircraft fire shot so many of these planes that crashing into their Warships made it the only way of hitting them. These attacks took place in late 1944 and the rest of 1945. By late 1942 the US ANTI-AIRCRAFT FIRE HAD BECOME SO EFFECTIVE THAT SO MANY JAPANESE PLANES WERE GETTING SHOT DOWN BEFORE THEY COULD DROP THEIR BOMBS OR TORPEDOS.

Japan cared more about their Kamikaze pilots than Texas cares about their women. Gotta love it.

They also had a policy of one pilot, one ship. This was ridiculous as most planes missed their target. If they had planned to swarm ships with kamikazes the results might have been very different. But, as has already been pointed out, there was not a lot of intelligence to report back about the success of these operations. Thank goodness!
