This is a Nakajima Sakae 14 cylinder from a Japanese A6M Zero that was pulled out of the Lagoon on wake Island. If you look close you can see a "Ma Duce" (M2 browning .50 cal machine gun) in front of the engine. Its amazing to see all the landing craft and other war relics just sitting there all over the Island.
