Remembering the Hump after 70 years
Posted byThe hypocrisy of both the Chinese and US governments, as exemplified by this article, is just shocking. On the one hand, both Governments honor the achievements of the Hump flyers with memorials and dignified ceremonies. But on the other hand, the Chinese Government issues attacks, via the official China Radio International, on purely humanitarian operations to recover the remains of flyers, including my uncle, who were killed during the Hump airlift, intimidating both the US and Indian Governments into suspending recovery of their remains !
