Those people could be anybody.
Fine, I can understand them keeping it quiet DURING THE WAR and for some time thereafter. But this occurred 80 friggin’ years ago, we are not at war with Japan, there is nothing strategic that could be revealed, and the maintenance of secrecy over such history makes no sense.
I’ve always found it hilarious that this so-called feminist icon is mostly famous for getting lost and crashing.
Dunno about the others but I am sure that person in the long dress is Judge Crater.
Stolen social security numbers. If the truth ever comes out, even we’ll be shocked by what is learned.
She’s dead, Jim...
I agree, which is why this is a fascinating story. Hope they find out what really happened. Can you imagine a file found, and bodies/plane returned to US? Wow. What a story.
The absence of Japanese guards in the photo is suspect.
If they were prisoners, their would be guards and no civilians would have been allowed so near them. The Japanese would have had no problem throwing both of them in a 3 x 3 foot cage and keeping them there until they figured what their next actions would be.
I don’t know if this is legit or not and it doesn’t much matter any more but why not disclose that they knew about this for 80 years? Probably because if you start talking about stuff like this whatever shred of credibility the government may have left is gone because they’ve just outed themselves as confirmed liars. They won’t do that.
looks like a bigfoot to me ,, ?
Is George Washington in that picture?
Is it just me, or do a lot of Baraq’s childhood photos look loke his head was cut and pasted onto some other kid’s body?
Photo taken prior to the Japs taking them into custody?
She’s aged well!!
“.....or for the History Channel, Fake History”.
That’s for sure. The History Channel is terrible in most cases.
One promo for an upcoming piece on Stalin has the narrator talking about Stalin killing Soviet generals. Someone remarks that “In a Democracy you just don’t do that, (kill the generals) but he did it anyway”. As if the USSR under Stalin was a democracy.
Sounds a lot like a Hollywood movie that was made during WW2: Flight for Freedom. Rosiland Russell played a pioneering woman aviator who disappeared while on a secret flight for the government.
I hate to sound all tin-foil-y (better ping the boss!) but SO MUCH of Obama’s stuff looks fake, Photo-shopped, etc.
“Daddy” only seen with him at the airport. Weird photos with Grandma and Grandpa, Grandma conveniently drops dead 2 days before the 2008 election, Obama’s constant lying (she lived through 2 world wars - she was 86).
Maybe she was 86’d.
But, back to the foil, I say 40 years ago, this would have been easily uncovered and discredited. The mere fact that it was allowed to continue, for TWO elections, is disturbing on several levels.
I’m surprised that Obama wasn’t at Malta - with Brian Williams.
That’s probably coming.
It would be interesting if we could read the
sign the man is holding, looks Japanese though.
The woman standing on the dock appears islamic.
Another claim in the story is that the Japanese ship on the right is towing their airplane on a barge. So, not likely prior to capture.
Also note the eery similarity to the ship in the photo and the Mariana's issued stamp showing the supposed aircraft recovery (lower right).
