AS he took off again, the sound OF
bombs exploding at a distance
were heard.

meant the Japs were dropping

Chapter VI

AVG wanted something different
and distinctive, for. in spite OF
their grousing and misery, the
fliers were slowly building up in
themselves an esprit de corps that
demanded expression.
INSIGNIA SOUGHT
Their leader had anticipated
them in this. Chennault was al
ready in communication with
David Corcoran and Harry B
Price of China Defense Supplies
Inc. back in Washington, trying tc
evolve a distinguishing mark for
his little aerial army.
Then Cocoran and Price invited
the Walt Disney Studios in Holly
wood TO try an expert hand at the
Job. and from the brush of Henry
Porter, n Disney artist, issued the
figure of a Bengal tiger with two
comically Intellectual wings. flying
bravely through a "V" for Vic
tory"
The tiger was as distinctive and
charming a creation as Mickey
Mouse or Grumpy. Chennault was
delighted. The pilots OF the Amer
lean Volunteer Group became The
Flying Tigers"
They christened their squadrons
The first became the adam and
Eve" as that had been history's
original pursuit, and the planes OF
this squadron blossomed with ar
action shot of Eve getting her mar

graphs. Maybe they were afraid.
Well, IL they were, the ground
crew decided, they'd make them
more fearful.
Eriksen f. Shilling, an army
flier from Washington, d. C., re-
called some folklore to the effect
that the Japs. an island people OF
fishing fleets and navies and odd
religious beliefs. entertained a
wholesale fear Of sharks.
So, with Chennault's approval,
they painted the red mouth and
flashing teeth and evil eye Of the
tiger shark on the noses Of the
P-40s.
But other planes in other wars
had used this same insignia. The

DAWN PATROL

Sandell and five others OF the
Adam and Ewes made a dawn
patrol next day, December 20, but
the Japs stayed away, while the
morning dragged endlessly along.
The Second was also on the alert,
waiting. Nevertheless, something
was going to happen, they knew.
Something had 10 happen. They
felt it in the air. They pulled
hard and deep on their cigarets,
waiting.
In the parking area and along
the edges of the field the Toma-
hawks with their Shark-snouts
seemed alert and fervid for action,
too, as they received the ministra-
tions of the ground crew. Then,
just as the pilots feared they were
to be robbed of their desire, the
radio spluttered and spoke.
The operator tore off his ear
phones and dashed into Chem
nault's office, with the pilots

already established.
On the same day, the move

the main base at RUNNING, China,
awaited occupancy.
UP BURMA ROAD
Most OF the ground personnel
started off on the long Journey
over the Burma road in trucks
and Studebaker touring cars,
leaving the pilots TO fly the planes
up later. The departing travellers
shed no tears as they looked their
last on Toungoo, that suburb OF
Gehenna.
During their training, the AVG
had lost a dozen of the 90 Toma-
hawks actually delivered TO it,
and many Of these were now
grounded awaiting repairs and re-
parts. The group had
used up a considerable AMOUNT Of
in target practice.
READY FOR ACTION
New planes, tires and parts and
large supplies of ammunition had
been promised for November de-

of restoring some sort of order TO
their blasted city.

memory against the future.
But TO the men of the AVG II
was astounding and infuriating
Every last one of them was glad
then. that he had come 10 do
something about such evils as this.
The next day was December 10.
The First Squadron under Robert
j. Sandell of San Antonio. Tex.
was in the ready" shack half
hour before dawn, eager to re-
venge Running. If they had
needed any spur to action, they
had it now. But the JapS did not
come back.
