File talk:No Kum-Sok.jpg

Photo source

According to the 2015 biography of No Kum-Sok The Great Leader and the Fighter Pilot, within days of his defection in 1953, he was photographed by US Air Force interrogators. From Chapter 11, Part V:

As [No Kum-Sok] continued waiting for his interrogators, air force photographers insisted that he pose for propaganda photographs. For some pictures, he put on his Snoopy-style helmet, bulbous black oxygen mask, leather gloves, and parachute. For others, he gazed soulfully into the middle distance with his leather flight jacket partly unzipped. For still others, he was photographed from behind as he looked over his MiG. No looked like a defector from central casting. He was lean and handsome, with high cheekbones and a full head of thick black hair. He was twenty-one but looked younger.

It's almost certain this is the origin of the picture since 1. it fits the description given in the above paragraph and 2. it's from the US Air Force which is who took the pictures. -- Green Cardamom (talk) 02:47, 22 March 2015 (UTC)
