The Betty wreckage is off the one that was got chopped up in 1970.

F6F Wildcat Wreckage
There are also parts from Ensign Smith's F6F Hellcat from the Bunker Hill that was shot down on 8th December 1943. These parts were put on display because of excellent original paint on them, there is also a piece of one of the propeller blades.

There is a 65 kg Japanese defused bomb and 25mm magazines and a tail unit of a 250 kg Japanese bomb that was blown up postwar. Also, a complete 127mm round with fuze off the AA guns on Command Ridge and a complete 150mm round off one of the coastal guns.
