In Myanmar, no less: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-22...ngle-grave.html Many of the preserved/restored WW2 warbirds were recovered from dirty little wars on the sidelines of the big Cold War, fought with ex-WW2 equipment such as the Football War, fought between El Salvador and Honduras, French Indochina, as well as expeditions to Indonesia, the artic, etc. And check out this video on efforts to recover an intact B-29 from Greenland (it went wrong): I wonder if there's any crashed WW2 aircraft in the jungles of Singapore or Pulau Tekong/Ubin? There was air combat over Singapore fought by Buffaloes, Hurricanes against the Japanese Nicks and Oscars, etc, but later on in 1944/45, B-29 Superfortresses bombed the naval base as part of efforts to hassle the Japanese fleet: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bombing_of_Si...944–1945)
