Last Raider

It looked like any other Chinese grave --a small, flat headstone on a sloping hillside overlooking the village of Wang Tsun, 450 miles southwest of Shanghai. On the stone, airmen's wings were crudely etched. Beneath the stone, American Graves Registration servicemen found the body of Corporal Leland D. Faktor, of Plymouth, Iowa. They carried the body to Shanghai to await the wishes of Faktor's relatives in Iowa. Said Colonel Charles F. Kearney, A.G.R.S. chief in China: "The last of the Doolittle raiders has come home."
