The fate of aviator Amelia Earhart and her navigator Fred Noonan has remained an enigma for 80 years, but a recently discovered photograph may attempt to solve that mystery.
Earhart and Noonan departed to circumnavigate the globe on July 2, 1937, in what would be a 29,000-mile flight. On the final stretch of their attempt, they both disappeared. A widely accepted theory says Earhart died after running out of fuel and crashing into the Pacific Ocean, but former FBI Executive Assistant Director Shawn Henry is backing up a different idea.

The black-and-white image obtained by the History Channel suggests Earhart and Noonan survived the plane crash and were captured by the Japanese military. In it, two people who resemble Earhart and Noonan are seen on a dock with their Lockheed Electra airplane aboard a ship. The photo would back the theory that the two survived a crash-landing in the Marshall Islands and were held prisoner by the Japanese military on the island of Saipan until their deaths.
“This absolutely changes history,” Henry said. He also proposed that the Japanese government thought Earhart and Noonan were American spies.
Former U.S. Treasury Agent Les Kinney discovered the photo in National Archives records in 2012, which is revealed in investigative documentary “Amelia Earhart: The Lost Evidence,” airing Sunday, July 9 at 9 p.m. on History.
The photo, which Kinney believes must have been taken before 1943, shows a ship towing a barge with an airplane on the back with several people on a nearby dock. Two independent analyses by Doug Carner and Kent Gibson said the photo appears to be legitimate, according to People. Carner determined it had not been altered, and Gibson, who specializes in facial recognition, said it’s likely the individuals are Earhart and Noonan. They both recognized the ship in the photo as Koshu Maru, a Japanese military vessel said to have captured the duo after their crash.
This Japanese military theory has been in discussion since the 1960s, and is backed by witnesses who apparently saw their aircraft land and saw the two in Japanese custody.
The Japanese still deny The Rape Of Nanking even with hundreds of photographs that document their barbarous acts. Why would they cop to killing an American woman? That’s small potatoes to them.
Well I’m skeptical about the Rape of Nanking. I suspect it was most likely Chinese propaganda to try to bring the US into the war. Nanking was the fucking capital of China at the time, it would have been insane for the Japs to pull off shit there.
Zarathustra,
You are correct to question the ((Rape of Nanking)).
It did not happen.
It was the ((Chinese Holocaust)) committed by the Japanese.
Isn’t it amazing that there was no ((Rape of Nanking)) until AFTER the end of WW2?
It seems similar to the ((Holocaust)) which occurred in Europe!
NEVER forget ((6 MILLION)) were killed multiple times even BEFORE WW2!
ooops 6 million Jewish Holocaust / Jewish Holohoax 1914-1921-Central-Eastern Europe.

((WHO)) benefited from this?
((WHY)) did Germany and Japan ally?
((WHO)) were they fighting?
Here is an excellent pdf/book which is now BANNED by ((AMAZON))!

Since you are already an anti-Israel/Zionist, I encourage you to peruse the pdf since it might help you embrace the red pill ((truth)) about WW2.
((WHY)) can you buy a ((COMMUNIST FLAG)) and not a ((CONFEDERATE FLAG)) ON ((AMAZON))?
Inquiring minds want to know.
Love () don’t you?
I call bullshit : Anybody who is anybody knows it was a forced alien abduction.At least that’s what Stucky said.I think that’s what happened to him.
I also call BS, because Hillary said the Russians did it, so there.
I believe it. The U.S. Navy was desperate for any Intel on the Jap Navy at that time. Apparently her whole ’round the world’ trip was a ruse, intentionally well publicized, in an attempt to covertly gather Intel for the U.S. A decade ago a Naval officer from WWII, on his deathbed, said he personally recovered her atache’ case from one of the captured Jap-held islands. He was sworn to secrecy, of course.
But who knows?? Everything seems a web of lies when it concerns the government.
80 years ago? At this point, what difference does it make?
No difference save further confirmation that the US Government was perfectly willing to sacrifice as many of its own citizens as necessary towards attaining diplomatic ends. Provocation of war with Japan was a desired end at the beginning of the 1940’s, so if the US government could help that end by letting the Japanese believe the fliers were spies, their fates were sealed.
The Greatest Generation were cannon fodder, little more.
Have to have a picture of her pussy!
If she were imprisoned on Saipan, it is likely she would have died when the US invaded. Saipan was one of the best defended and best equipped island fortresses the Japs had. I doubt the Japs would have killed her; most likely she died during the invasion, a victim of US shells/bombs/napalm or whatever.
She and George Putnam used to go to my grandfather’s dude rach in Wyoming in the 30s. She gave my dad a 22 rifle and a bamboo fly rod just months before she disappeared.
I’d be very interested to know what really happened to her…it’s part of my family history too.
And that’s one reason why it’s so important. Closure for families, even if down the line.
Since about age six (1952), I’ve never thought of her without thinking of Judge Crater, another of those famous vanished, later to be joined by Jimmy Hoffa. For once in my life, I wish I had a teevee so I could watch the documentary, although sooner or later I’ll get to see it. It certainly seems interesting to me and likely would be to anyone in my age group who remembers the story.
Thanks for posting this!
