“He died as a result of enemy action…”

At the University of Illinois they’re still lying about what happened to U.S. Navy Ensign Wesley Frank Osmus, sixty-nine years after he crashed his TBD Devastator into the Pacific in 1942.

Osmus did not, as the university claims, “die as a result of enemy action.” He was murdered by Japanese war criminals. Academia these days seems to be all of a piece. A sorry, prevaricating (when not actually lying) piece of cowardice.

  1. I think that laziness is as much to blame as cowardice in a case like this. Why bother? they undoubtedly say to themselves…

  2. Whatever their excuse du jour, they need to correct it.
