Of those who didn’t make it back, two men drowned and another was killed while bailing out. Eight were captured by the Japanese, of whom three were executed and one died of disease. The highest price was paid by China. An estimated 250,000 Chinese civilians were murdered in reprisal actions by Japanese forces for the assistance given to American flyers.

Never knew the Chinese were murdered in reprisal... Interesting post - thanks.

They really didnt need a reason to murder the chinese civilians as they had already been committing the attrocities since 31.Check out a book called the Rape of Nanking and the biological testing against the chinese all through the war.What they got in august of 45 and all the fire raids paled in comparison to the butcher job the did on china.
