History
-------

BII-124 served aboard the Japanese carrier Hiryu and took part in the Pearl Harbor
attack on December 7, 1941.  It was later to play a part in the first attack on
Darwin which took place on February 19, 1942.

Piloted by Hajime Toyoshima, the aircraft was shot down by ground fire and crashed
on Melville Island.  Toyoshima survived and was taken prisoner, later to die
during the Cowra POW breakout in August 1944.

The aircraft was the first Zero to be captured by the Allies and the first enemy
aircraft to be shot down over Australian soil.  It is now displayed at the
Australian Aviation Heritage Museum in Darwin.
