The second white U.S. soldier defected to Korea, and 39 years later he returned to Japan, surrendered to the U.S. military in Japan, and confessed!
His name is Jenkins, born in the United States in 1940, on January 5, 1965, while patrolling the 38th Parallel, crossed the minefield to return to North Korea.
He was the second white American soldier to defect to North Korea after the Korean War. The first white American soldier to defect to North Korea was Called Dresnock, who defected to North Korea in August 1962. Figure 6 shows a group photo of the two in North Korea
Jenkins's reason for defection: The Vietnam War began, fearing that he would be sent to the Battlefield in Vietnam.
During his time in North Korea, he participated in anti-American activities, mainly broadcasting to the United States, and later taught English at the university. Later, I met a Japanese woman who was "kidnapped": Hitomi Tsang, and married her. Later, in September 2004, Jenkins and Hitomi Zeng and their two daughters returned to Japan, and Jenkins surrendered and confessed to the crime of us troops stationed in Japan.
Later, the U.S. military court sentenced him to 30 days of detention and issued him a military rank. Jenkins died in Japan in December 2017. #Military # #军事趣科普 #
