Intruder Jet Incident Leaves Three Airmen Dead
Three U S Air Force officers aboard a T-39 trainer were killed when their aircraft reportedly crossed into East Germany and was intercepted before vanishing from radar screens. Tass called the intrusion a gross provocation as authorities investigated the crash near Diedorf, 15 miles northwest of Eisenach. The men were Lt Col Gerald K Hannaford of Carp, Capt Donald G Millard, and John F Lorraine Jr. The Air Force refused to confirm a downing, noting the plane was unauthorized to cross the border and no definite enemy action could be confirmed.
