WHITE, Donald Phillip, USAF (Ret.) 87, passed away on Feb. 5, 2012. Donald was born in Presque Isle, ME. He served his country in World War II, Korea and Vietnam retiring in 1968 after 20 years of distinguished military service to his country. As a combat crew member of the 307th Bombard- ment Wing, he was on board one of the B-29 Superfortresses and was part of the largest daylight air battle over North Korea as chronicled in the book, Black Tuesday Over Namsi written by Earl J. McGill, Lt Col. USAF (Ret). Donald flew in one of the nine B-29 aircraft sent to knock out the Russian MIG-15 airfield at Namsi, North Korea, also known as MIG Alley. Protected by U.S. fighter escorts F-86 and F-84, what ensued was one of the greatest jet engagements in the history of aerial warfare. Six of the nine B-29 aircraft perished in the bombing raid. Donald survived in one of the three returning aircraft. Operating with only two of the four engines, and sustaining over 400 MIG cannon holes in the body of the aircraft, his plane safely landed at a U.S. airbase in Japan. All crew members survived. He is survived by his wife of 57 years, the love of his life, Virginia M.
