			'''Historical Note'''<br />
			Late in the war, the Japanese launched thousands of “Fu-Go balloons” designed to cross the Pacific on the jet stream and drop payloads of explosives and incendiary devices on mainland United States. Most of these balloons failed to reach North America, landed without detonation, or detonated in remote areas where they caused little damage.

			The only deaths caused by the balloons occurred in southern Oregon, where a family of six discovered a downed balloon and accidentally set off the attached anti-personnel bomb. A press blackout had kept citizens in the dark about the threat posed by the balloons, which likely contributed to the accidental detonation.
