Air Force Telegrams Notify Family of POW Release
The Air Force says it sent a June 1954 telegram and a letter to Mrs. Una Schmidt about her airman husband Daniel C. Schmidt being listed as a prisoner in Red China. Schmidt, later identified as a POW, was among 11 airmen released by the Communists and due to arrive at Travis Air Force Base near San Francisco. Mrs Schmidt, living apart with her son in California, had learned of the release only in November 1954 after marrying Alford Fine. An Air Force spokesman noted a Western Union delivery receipt but could not confirm signatory details.
