Oh chit! Word to P40 Warhawks. I had a gas engine control line model airplane when I was little and always thought the sharkface was badass. Which explains why years later I’d be coveting the Bape WGM hoodie. Funny though as the Tigers (AVG) were fighting against the Japanese as their raison d’etre.

AVG blood chit

“A ‘blood chit’ issued to the American Volunteer Group Flying Tigers. The Chinese characters read: ‘This foreign person has come to China to help in the war effort. Soldiers and civilians, one and all, should rescue and protect him’. (R.E. Baldwin Collection)”
