Klusmann’s “extended tour of duty” as 1 a prisoner of the Communists in Laos was over today. Klusmann was , on his way home. A spokesman for the U.S. Military Assistance Group in Bangkok announced Tuesday that Klusmann, shot down over Laos and captured June 6, had escaped and was safe and sound in Thailand. Today, the U.S. Embassy said that Klusmann “is no Ibnger in Thailand.” Secrecy shrouded his departure, but he was believed en route back to the United States. Although the spokesman refused to discuss Klusmann’s flight, it was learned later that he left Laos Tuesday night and was flown directly to Udorn Air Base in northeastern Thailand. From there it was believed he was whisked awaj to the United States. It was first believed Klusmann stopped .over in Vientiane, Laos, but a spokesman said later he was taken directly to Thailand. During his imprisonment, Klusmann, 30, had written his wife, Sara, in San Diego, Calif., to think of his absence as an extended duty tour. It turned out to be not all that extended. The military spokesman said Tuesday that Klusmann, “apparently in good physical condition,” was at the U.S.-manned air base at Udorn, Thailand, 350 miles north of Bangkok, and would be “evacuated to American facilities outside of Thailand” as soon as possible. The spokesman gave no details of Klusmann’s escape. Neither did the White House, which made the first announcement in Washington. The mere fact of the escape appeared to be one of the epic feats of the cold war. Observers here speculated that one possibility was that U.S. military or charter helicopters had rescued Klusmann. Klusmann was one of the pilots sent to reconnoiter Communist positions in Laos at the request of Laotian Premier Souvanna Phouma, who wanted photographic evidence of the Communist military offensive of last May. After Klusmann’s unarmed RFBA photographic reconnaissance plane, flying from the carrier USS Kitty Hawk, was shot down, armed U.S. fighters were ordered up to accompany reconnaissance missions.
