The 11th Airborne Division successfully rescued a downed B25 pilot who had been stranded behind enemy lines for several days. Despite suffering from injuries sustained during the crash, the pilot managed to evade Japanese patrols for several days, relying on his survival training and sheer willpower to stay alive. It was only when he stumbled upon a small village that his luck began to change. Despite the risk of being caught by Japanese patrols, the villager and his family provided the pilot with food, shelter, and medical attention, keeping him hidden from prying eyes and making sure that he was well-cared for. After several tense hours, airborne personnel finally managed to locate the pilot and extracted him from the village, only after arguing with him that the pilot was ours.
