iamurai" - Story Of A Japanese Pilot
|

By M. SITARR

■ Recently I finished reading the book “Samurai”, the' personal
ry of Saburo Sakai, Japan’s greatest living fighter pilot and
I like to tell you a little about : the -book. = It is the story of the
^r side of the war which we did not read about in our news^ers nor did they read about in their newspapers. It is an
siting and fascinating story of a fighter pilot Avho had over 200
Ibats, had 64 confirmed A kills and laterwas invited asaguesr
honor aboard several U.S. aircraft carriers and warships” and
nd friendship with U.S.- fighter-pilots who did not- get into
: field of his . gun-sights. It was - he who shot down Captain
P. Kelly Jr. on Dec’10, 1941* but his story is far different
the hero worship version that: we know which goes somethinoB this: Captain Kelly; fought' his way through hordes of enemy
^iter planes arid 'made a suicidal plunge into the Japanese batrip Haruna. According. to Sakai -at the reported time of the
le the Harima was on the other side of the South China Seas,
.-e were no battleships in the Philippines. The warship Kelly
acked was a light cruiser of the 4000-ton Nagara Class. Ac­
ting to Sakai, he arid.'his pilots were" providing air cover and
bre they -knew it -Kelly -had made a bombing run at 22,000 feet
was running- away-from the- area •whemhe was later: shot down
^^-him near Clark Field in the : Philippines. The ironic thing is
Kelly is not - remembered for -the -actual' heroic deed which
l^is'that he and his. pilot ^stayed iat 'the controls of their burning
Stober in order that: the-crew’could bail out.
