When the US army began their air raids at the end of the Pacific War in 1945, it became a base for the special attack troops. Many young people flew into the southern sky, never to return.
Entaigo is the facility to protect warplanes from enemy air raids. Centered in Yanagiura, this air base has an area of 184 hectares, extending 1. 2 km east to west and 1. 3 km north to south. After the war, only a small number of ruins, such as 11 concrete bunkers, remain.
