Unit 731 Japanese Live Human Medical Experiments: 1. AAF-CBI-MONUMENTS, MEN

My Father was a flying tiger. One day when our families were vacationing in Yosemite Valley so we could have some time together [I was 15 and he was 20, ] Our fathers started talking about the war. My father said that every few months the barracks would be virtually empty, and Uncle Sam would send in
enough new volunteers to burst the barracks.

Many of these were lost on low altitude decoy runs--lower priority targets
would receive boys whose marksmanship was poor or had other problems.
Those with high marksmanship and other skills would take a higher altitude
route over the Hymalayas, thus delivering Chiang Kai Check's ''High Priority''
Supplies to Chiang. The men were often in disagreement, realizing that Chiang was not using this cargo to fight the Japanese, but stockpiling it to
use against Mao in a return to the Pre-WWII Chinese Civil War.

I sked my father if this was true a few years later. He said that it was.
