U S Demands Compensation Over Bomber Shootdown
The United States demanded compensation from Russia for the firing on an American B-50 bomber over the Sea of Japan. Washington rejected Moscow’s version, urged an exhaustive investigation into 16 missing crew, and sought payment for the loss and potential crew fatalities. The note asserted the bomber was about 40 miles southeast of Soviet land, refuting Russia’s claim the plane was over Russian territory. Captain Roche, the surviving co pilot, had been questioned by American authorities.
