Through the Eyes of a Tiger

Through the Eyes of a Tiger

In 1941, the American Volunteer Group, better known as the Flying Tigers, successfully battled the Japanese in the sky under the skillful command of General Claire Lee Chennault. Their small cadre of trained fighter pilots went to China determined to fight the Japanese, who had already brutally murdered over a million Chinese men, women, and children. This is the story of one member of the original Flying Tigers, John Donovan. Through his letters, in his own words, you will travel the seas to Burma, experience the pitfalls of training, and learn what it was like to see the â€œbig red circleâ€ on a Japanese fighter plane up close. From Floridaâ€™s Pensacola Naval Air Station to the Hanoi airfield where John was shot down, you are taken on a flight back in timeâ€”one you wonâ€™t soon forget.
