Flying Tigers 23rd Fighter Group Jacket - Brown

Flying Tigers Leather Jacket

Up until the end of 1941, the American Volunteer Group was an all-volunteer fighter squadron who fought the Japanese in China, known throughout the world as The Flying Tigers! Absorbed into the Army Air Force on July 4th, 1942, the 23rd Fighter Group was the official new name for the AVG, but kept their nom de guerre The Flying Tigers. This Flying Tigers 23rd Fighter Group Jacket is in our large collection of historical military jackets at Aviator Mercantile Post.

A blood chit is a notice carried by military personnel and addressed to any civilians who may come across an armed-services member such as a shot-down pilot in difficulties.1
