According to the UK’s Daily Mail, the 40 year old mystery of what happened to Errol Flynn’s son Sean may have been solved. Handsome photojournalist Sean Flynn was just 28 when he disappeared in 1970 during a Time magazine assignment in Cambodia. Sean’s mother Lili Damita spent a lot of money on failed expeditions to find Sean’s body before she died in 1994. Sean’s sister Rory funded a recent expedition that discovered the remains of a Westerner they believe is Sean. Remains are being sent to America for DNA testing. Sean’s disappearance was immortalized by The Clash in their song named after him in their Combat Rock album.

Just recently on the Military channel they had a documentary type program focusing on the men and woman who covered the Vietnam war it was very interesting….Flynn was one of the men they mentioned.
Story goes is that he and fellow photojournalist go riding on their motorbikes into the jungle and were never seen again.
fascinating. I had no idea Errol Flynn had a child and that he was a photographer in the Vietnam war.
