PARADED PILOTS
3 Named In Hanoi (N.Z. Press Assn.—Copyright) MOSCOW, May 7. American pilots captured after parachuting over Hanoi were paraded before angry crowds in the streets of the North Vietnamese capital today, Tass reported. A Tass dispatch from Hanoi said the American airmen were picked up after parachuting from their crippled jets yesterday near the capital. It did not say how many pilots were involved, but named three. (North Vietnam claimed seven United States planes were shot down yesterday. The United States Military Command in Saigon announced the loss of three United States Air Force FlO5 Thunderchiefs in the action.)
