U.S. helicopter incident cited as provocation by Korean command
The Korean People's Army agency blamed the United States for an intrusion by a U.S. helicopter into its area. It said the incident happened after the helicopter attempted to flee and landed under warning fire from antiaircraft gunners. The U.N. Command asked for the wounded crewman and three bodies to be returned to the U.S. The Defense Department identified the four crew members aboard the helicopter as Sgt. Robert C. Haynes, Sgt. Ron Wells, CWO Glenn M. Schwanke and CWO Joseph A. Miles.
