Did you see the story in "Naval History"
a few issues ago about
a P4M that was shot down over the Soviet Union?

Only one known P4M loss in recon, and that was near the PRC coast south
of Shanghai in 1956. I believe 16 aircrew lost, with two bodies found by
a USN destroyer, and two handed over to the British by the PRC. 12 others
MIA.
