Of Equal Importance: Tarac Ridge Poems

It was like a film script but real. 2 planes 2 pilots 2 crashes... We went to the crash area at Tarac Ridge on February 8-10 2018. This was the 76th anniversary of it. We went to the P-40 on Feb 9 and the Ki-27 on the 10th. The crashes are over a kilometer up altitude wise. We had to hike many hours through the forest/jungle and mountain to the area. We camped at the lower campsite. There is an easier site at the top of the mountain near Kurosawa's Nate which is less than a hundred feet below the area.
Because we never camped there we had to ascend the final hour to the summit each day. For Stone and Kurosawa. In death you are both equal. RIP.
