Reincarnation: Boy was WWII pilot

He is said to have lived before as Lt James Huston Jnr, who was shot down by the Japanese in 1945.

A book about him, Soul Survivor, is a best-seller in the US and tells how he began to have dreams about the war as a two-year-old.

His parents Bruce, 59, and Andrea, 47, were initially sceptical about the idea of reincarnation but have now traced the relatives of the dead pilot who were impressed by James's apparent memories of the war.

Mrs Leininger told the Mirror: "In the throes of his nightmares you couldn't work out what he was saying. But two or three months in, I was walking down the hall and I heard him saying, 'Airplane crash, plane on fire, little man can't get out.' "It chilled me to my bone hearing this.

"I asked him what happened to his plane and he said, 'It crashed on fire.' I asked how it crashed and he said the Japanese shot his plane."

James said his boat was called the Natoma and he remembered the name Jack Larsen.

Flicking through a book the two-year-old pointed at a picture of Iwo Jima in the Pacific and said that was where his plane was shot down.

Mr Leininger found that just one pilot died during the battle of Iwo Jima, James M Huston Jnr, 21.

He was shot down on March 3, 1945, while on his 50th mission, his last before he was due to go home.

James, now 11 from Lafayette, Louisiana. told the Mirror: "I think the story is incredible. I don't remember any of it but hearing about what happened when I was two, it is incredible."

Forget your religious mind control.

God is not religion. God is energy as is everything created...

Energy does not die. It takes other forms...

Think outside your limited belief system to ever expansive possibilities...

It is easy to dis on things you are afraid of. The facts speak for themselves. If your only response is "this is crap" then your response is the real crap.... To the family thanks for being brave enough to share this to the world.

What happened to the part where the family went to Japan and met the pilot that shot him down... now it is said that he was shot down by ground fire?

That is a story of Rebirth, not Reincarnation.

Don't people find it suspicious that almost all alleged cases of reincarnation are about famous historical figures or events like WWII? And even if the past memories were real, at most this only proves that the boy might have some extra sensory or psychic ability that was triggered when his dad took him to a flight museum. It's not even close to being proof of reincarnation.

Very natural... but not for many people who cannot see ahead their own noses and barely understand why they are alive... hehehehe

I really sorry for those who think that life is just a random event with no sense, but fortunately they will have other opportunities to return in the future (in different bodies...) to learn about reincarnation...

Cheers.

Let's see - Fox News reports this. There is a book being promoted. The child plays video games and has access to the Internet with parents that support and feed this fantasy. LOL People believe the stupidest things when they see them in the media.
