“As I recollect, the P3 was “forced” to land in China.”
There was a collision, and the crew had the option of either ditching the plane or landing it in enemy territory. They chose the latter. I figure the reason was due to the women screeching on the plane, so one might say, the women forced it down.
I had not heard that before but it makes sense. Where was an officer to tell her to STFU ,and ‘Get ready to earn your pay, we are going in the drink’.
