Re: Aircraft Used in Korea-AD's

Hi, Air War gurus -

In August (or Sept?) of 1950, a flight of US bombers bombed Hungnam for the
first time.  I was a kid in Hamhung at the time and witnessed two Yaks
climbing up to challenge the Yanks.  One of them fell out trailing thick
smoke (no parachute) and the other escaped.

Any record of this?

Thanks,


ysk
