Jack Fellows’ illustration, “One Down, Three to Go,” depicts Lieutenant Royce Williams’ encounter with Mikoyan-Gurevich MiG-15s on November 18, 1952, an action that stretched the limits of the Korean War. For years, the United States kept the encounter secret. The Soviet-flown MiGs lack national markings, reflecting what Williams stated in his after-action report.
