FOR AMERICA, the final days of 1941 were among the darkest of World War Two. Pearl Harbor was in flames, the Philippines were in the crosshairs and Wake Island was under siege. The Japanese were on the march everywhere, it seemed, and hope was in short supply. America desperately needed heroes — it would find them in the Flying Tigers.

The small group of volunteer pilots from the United States seemed to be the only ones striking back against Japan, sweeping enemy bombers from the skies in far-away China. Until that moment, few at home had ever heard their name, but suddenly, everyone was asking: Who are these Flying Tigers?

Just like the Royal Air Force pilots who saved the United Kingdom during the Battle of Britain, the Flying Tigers became a heroic symbol for America when it seemed all might be lost.

Today, the Flying Tigers are perhaps the best known American fighter aircraft group in history. Their name still resonates, just as the image of their shark-faced P-40s has become an icon of American airpower. You are looking at a flying tiger.    Ore info can be found on Militaryhistorynow.com
