Japanese Airfields, Equipment & more #11 - revised

Dining
IJNAF & IJAAF ground crews and pilots on standby often dined out at the airfield, so it wouldn't be unusual to find them sitting under the shade of an aircraft wing having a meal.

Ground crew members enjoying their food near their Mitsubishi A5M "Claude" fighters. Note the various food containers.

Pilots have just had a meal and are relaxing enjoying a cigarette. Note the buckets mentioned in a previous post and the various different chairs.

Similarly, in this video, these 87 Sentai pilots are having a meal next to their Nakajima Ki-44 "Shoki" fighters, ready for takeoff.
