The "Flying Tiger" insignia was designed by the Walt Disney company, who also did logos for submarines like the Pogy SS 266, the Drum SS 228, and the Nautilus SSN 571 (which Walt signed and once was at the USS Nautilus museum in Groton Ct) among other individual logos."Before the war had ended, Disney had created some 1,200 cartoon insignias. With the exception of Bambi, virtually every Disney character appeared at least once on a logo. The most requested character was Donald Duck, Pluto and Goofy and even Grumpy of the Seven Dwarfs appeared on decals. Mickey Mouse was never linked to a combat unit. His affable, nice guy image made him better suited for the home front defense industry. Snow White appeared as a military nurse, and Flower the Skunk was on the emblem of three chemical warfare units. Dumbo the Flying Elephant appeared on bomber planes and bombs. In cases where Disney characters seemed out of place, the studio created new mascots, as it did for the Mosquito Fleet, the Flying Tigers and the Seabees." http://www.atissuejournal.com/2010/08/10/wwii-military-logos-by-disney/After looking around the internet, I can only find two sites that show images of the Disney created designs http://www.skylighters.org/disney/ Use the forward (yellow pointing gloves) arrows to see more on that siteHere is a fantastic site with a couple dozen, all in color http://www.2719hyperion.com/p/service-with-character-disney-world-war.html 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"Above photos and some following info from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flying_TigersThe group consisted of three fighter squadrons with about 20 aircraft each. It trained in Burma before the American entry into World War II with the mission of defending China against Japanese forces. Arguably, the group was a private military contractor, and for that reason the volunteers have sometimes been called mercenaries. The members of the group had lucrative contracts with salaries ranging from $250 a month for a mechanic to $750 for a squadron commander, roughly three times what they had been making in the U.S. forces. Plus a $500 bonus for each aircraft they destroyed.The Tigers' shark-faced fighters remain among the most recognizable of any individual combat aircraft of World War II, and they demonstrated innovative tactical victories when the news in the U.S. was filled with little more than stories of defeat at the hands of the Japanese forces. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flying_TigersGeneral Hap Arnold said this about the Flying Tigers "You know, you AVG (American Volunteer Group) boys have an impressive combat record over there," and he added "but you know, more than the planes you destroyed, your main contribution was really the morale boost you gave this country" He continued; "The six or eight months you fellas operated in the beginning of the war, there wasn't much good news for us. We, nor the British or anyone else were able to beat the Japanese in those early months of the war. You guys were really the glimmer of hope because you were the only ones getting results. That meant an awful lot back here."Many became captains in the airlines such as Pan Am, others became test pilots, some went on to very successful military careers including Major General.There was a doctor, a lawyer and one that was both. The presiding judge in the infamous Charles Manson murder trial was a Flying Tiger. Several became successful in agriculture, businesses like restaurants and manufacturing. One member who wrote television scripts in Hollywood.There were some who pursued successful non-flying careers in aviation as consultants, or one who was a state aviation director. One of the group helped pioneer the development of the jet engine and held many patents for engine components used today.One group member distinguished himself as a state senator for over 20 years. Another became an Olympic diving coach on top of other successes.Read more about the Flying Tigers at http://www.flyingtigersavg.com/tiger1.htmphoto from http://www.johngutmann.org/

The nationwide labor upsurge of 1934 reached its peak in San Francisco. On May 9, 1934, leaders of the International Longshoremen’s Association (ILA) called a strike of all West Coast dockworkers, demanding a wage scale of the 6-day, 30-hour week at a minimum rate of $1 per hour, a “closed shop” (union membership as a requirement of employment), and union-administered hiring halls.On May 15 teamsters, boilermakers and machinists voted a sympathy strike along with sailors and marine firemen’s union, involving 4,000 men, and 700 marine cooks and stewards took similar action the next day. Ferry boatmen, masters, mates and pilots, and marine engineers first struck against several companies for higher wages and a closed-shop contract, and subsequently the entire local was called out in a body. Not a single freighter left a Pacific coast port “for the first time in history.”Enraged employers, backed by a sympathetic mayor and police chief, used every means available to open the waterfront and protect strikebreakers, whom they imported in large numbers. Working closely with local politicians and the press, the employers set out to convince the public that the strike was controlled by “Reds” intent on overthrowing the government.These scare tactics led to an investigation of employer actions by a Senate subcommittee. The flagrant destruction of many of the records of the Industrial Association, described in this report, effectively prevented the Committee from obtaining full documentary evidence on the activities of the association. Violations of Free Speech and Rights of Labor, the subcommittee’s 1942 report, described the concerted efforts of the Industrial Association, the newspapers, and the San Francisco police to discredit the strike.http://historymatters.gmu.edu/d/5134/ for the entire reportDidn't see that in your American History book did you. Just one case in a long history of corporate greed versus workers and unions, and just one example of the people with the money fdoing anything at all to make more money and the people with power abusing it. Both the money and the power calling the shots and forcing the cops and national guard to shoot the strikers. No kidding. Photos from http://www.johngutmann.org/
