Interesting Fishlord...apparently, there was a Japanese Lt. Idia, who during the Pearl Harbor attack tried to fly his damaged plane into the armoury building at Kanehoe Air Station. He missed and hit a hill instead. Oddly, in the movie Tora, Tora, Tora he's shown dramatically making a direct hit. According to his fellow pilots before the raid, he had vowed to hit a worthy target if fatally damaged.
