Re: B-29 bombing missions to Hokkaido Island
Website history.navy.mil provides several pictures of the 14/15 July 1945 USN bombing missions to Hokkaido, including the sinking of the ferries. Just enter Hokkaido in 'search'.

In June 1945 there had been a B-29 recce mission to Hokkaido.

Out of scope: would the B-32 have had the range from Guam?

Regards,
