Donald Kerr

Donald Kerr was a lieutenant in the U.S. Army Air Corps during World War II, known for his courageous actions during the bombing of Japanese-occupied Hong Kong in 1944. After his plane was shot down, he parachuted to safety and was rescued by local resistance fighters, particularly a young man named Li Shi, who guided him to safety despite the language barrier. His experiences during this tumultuous time were later documented in his wartime diary.
