What became of Amelia Earhart?

 



After nearly a century, the disappearance of Amelia Earhart and co-pilot Fred Noonan remains a mystery wrapped in an enigma.

In 1937, Earhart set off to circumnavigate the entire earth. According to researcher Vincent Loomis, they had about 1,000 miles left in the journey before the plane went down. Earhart may have been killed on impact or died onshore from dysentery.

Noonan, according to a Japanese medical corpsman who treated Noonan’s wounds, Noonan had been tossed forward and cut his head. There was also a four-inch gash in one knee.

Noonan took a portable raft to a nearby atoll, where, according to local natives, he was captured by the Japanese as he came to shore. He was questioned on the beach, but spoke no Japanese, but was arrested as a spy anyway since he was carrying a 35-millimeter camera with him when he came on to the beach.

 He was flown to a military hospital where his knee was worked out and then tossed into prison where was fed a bowl of fin soup once a day as his only nourishment. One fateful day, suffering from dysentery and fed up with his treatment, he threw the contents of his bowl at a guard. A while later he was dragged from his cell and beheaded. The murder was covered up once the war ended.
