Billy Mitchell (volcano)
Volcano in Papua New Guinea
Billy Mitchell is a dormant pyroclastic shield volcano in central Bougainville, just north-east of the Bagana Volcano in Papua New Guinea. It is a small pyroclastic shield truncated by a 2 km wide caldera filled by a crater lake. It is named after Billy Mitchell, a 20th-century United States Army general who is sometimes regarded as the father of the United States Air Force.
