Subject: TIGERS OVER CHINA Frame 1 AAR Dec. 1941

After months of bombing, the JAAF was finally turned
away from Kunming by the newly arrived American Volunteer
Group (AVG) and 67 Squadron British Air Forces.

Early reports came in from alert outposts of many
Japanese G4M1 Betty’s and D3A Val’s along with Ki43 and Ki27
escorts approaching the Kunming area. The AVG was already on
hi alert and patroling the areas between Hanoi and Kunming.
British 67 squadron, currently patroling the Burma Road raced
to engage the enemy.

The JAAF Betty bombers came in hi over 17k while
Vals skimed the ground in an attempt to sneak in unseen.
High fighter aircraft flown by the skillful and battle hardened
Japanese pilots fought valiently and managed to knock down
several allied fighters.

However the shark toothed Warhawks of the AVG and
skillfully flown Buffalos of the British forces won the day.
Shooting down several enemy bombers and fighters, allied
forces held off the Japanese attack, keeping all Chinese
installations and air bases open.
