Despite their bravery and tenacity, it was to be a one-sided combat, with the Thai's being taken down one by one. Yet, in the desperate fight they managed to shoot down one of the Americans. The plane of Henry Minco, the fallen pilot, was found 75 years later by a team that included RTAF Air Chief Marshall Sakpinit Promthep, USAF Major Daniel Jackson, and Mr. Hak Hakanson. In January 2024 the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency is due to excavate the site in the hope of finding and repatriating Minco's remains. This incredible story was brought to us by Major Jackson who reached out to the channel. Major Jackson is a Combat Aviation Advisor with the US Air Force Special Operations Command and author of Fallen Tigers: The Fate of America’s Missing Airmen in China During World War II.
