Where is the memorial in Brookings OR for the 1942 Japanese bombing?

On September 9, 1942, Mount Emily, near Brookings, became the first site in the continental United States to suffer aerial bombardment in wartime. Fifty years after the incident, the Japanese pilot, who survived the war, would return to Oregon to help dedicate a historical plaque at the exact spot where his two bombs had impacted. The elderly pilot then donated his ceremonial sword as a gesture of peace and closure of the bombing of Oregon in 1942. The Memorial Plaque is located in Brookings, Oregon at the site of the 1942 bombing.
