Captain Royce Williams - The 50-Year Secret That Could’ve Sparked WW3 | SRS #355

Captain Royce Williams is a retired U.S. Navy fighter pilot, Medal of Honor recipient, and veteran of WWll, Korea and Vietnam war. During his 37-year Navy career, he flew 227 combat missions, including a remarkable 35-minute dogfight against Soviet MiG-15s over the Sea of Japan in 1952. The encounter remained classified for decades because of direct Soviet involvement. In 2026, at age 101, Williams received the Medal of Honor for his actions that day.
