When Yates McDaniel died in Florida in 1983, few outside his family
paid much attention. The only hint of his fame came in a brief
obituary buried on the inside pages of the New York Times. The obit
suggested bravery and a past far more exciting than almost anyone
knew. Even those who worked alongside him in the 1960s at the
Associated Press were startled to learn what McDaniel had been,
what he had done when he was a young man and the world was at war.
Yet, this remarkable reporter covered more of the Asian war than
anyone else -- from the savage Japanese assault on Nanking in 1937
to the fall of Singapore in 1942 to landing with US Marines on New
Britain in 1943. He took risks no other reporter ever accepted, and
colleagues joked that Japanese-bombers followed him wherever he
went.
