In 1953 Cy and Laddie are married. From a 1964 CNAC Mailing List: Cyril Pinkafa CAT Taipeh, Formosa From a 1965 CNAC Mailing List: Cyril Pinkava Southern Air Trans APO 323 San Francisco, Calif. 96423 Cyril's Family is working on his biography (2000). Hopefully, with some stories about those early post WWII days of flying the Pacific with CNAC. November 4, 2004 "Pinky" came from the Army Air Corps. I do believe he flew in B-17's over Germany prior to coming to the Pacific Theater. He remained in China. After CNAC folded in Hong Kong, he went to work for Air America.
