    I think it's a Tomahawk.... The engine doesn't look like the Packard or Merlin. Looks like a radial engine.... I would say it's a twin wasp. Probably a Tomahawk.

    I sure if one had the time and inclination to walk around out there or even the islands of the SW Pacific, you could run across all sorts of stuff.

    I remember, about mid 1974, a 49 y/o guy walked out of the Phillipine jungle and surrendered. He just never believe the "propaganda" about the war being over.
