  This photo ran in he Sunday Oregonian. (Portland, Ore.), September 17, 1916 with the caption " Japanese Aviator Graduating at Tokosozawa [sic] Aerodrome. Japan is rapidly building up the aerial branch of her military force. The army aviation school recently graduated a large class of aviators at the Tokosozawa aerodrome near Tokio." oregonnews.uoregon.edu/lccn/sn83045782/1916-09-17/ed-1/se... This is likely a misspelling of Tokorozawa, the site of Japan's first permanent airfield and aviation school.

  Art Siegel: Thanks for both linking these two related images with good source information and for catching the spelling error in the newspaper article! We will update the record description.

  this almost looks like it's been colorized. The men look so washed out, and the planes look so vivid.
