LATE NOTES FOR THE PRESIDENT'S DAILY BRIEF OF
14 APRIL 1969
I. MAJOR PROBLEMS
There is nothing significant to report on the Middle
East, Europe, Vietnam, or Soviet Affairs.
II, OTHER MAJOR DEVELOPMENTS
KOREA
North Korean fighters shot down a US reconnaissance
aircraft over the Sea of Japan last night. The American
aircraft, a Navy Super Constellation, was nearly 100 miles
off the Korean coast when it was attacked. Pyongyang promptly
broadcast a report of the shootdown, claiming the aircraft
had intruded into North Korean airspace. The North Koreans
have proposed a meeting of the Military Armistice Commission
for Thursday.
Rescue operations have been launched, but, as yet, there
is no word on the fate of the 31 crewmen aboard the aircraft.
