Robert J. Flynn, Shot Down in Vietnam War, Dies at 76
MAY 24, 2014


Navy Cmdr. Robert J. Flynn, who spent five and a half years in a Communist Chinese prison during the Vietnam War, almost always in solitary confinement, after he was shot down on a bombing mission, died on May 15 in Pensacola, Fla. Commander Flynn, one of only two American servicemen known to have been held by the Chinese during the war, was 76.

The cause was a heart attack, said his wife, Kathy.

Commander Flynn’s medals, citing his combat exploits and resistance to his captors, included the Legion of Merit, the Distinguished Flying Cross and the Bronze Star.
