FRAME 5 - BATTLE OF RANGOON (Japanese Offensive)
June-July 1942

To: American Volunteer Group, RAF 67 Squadron,

We’re backed into a corner gentlemen. I am recalling 1st and 2nd AVG.
Launch from Kunming asap and get south to defend Rangoon. You can
rebase at Toungoo F117 with the 3rd AVG. I need you to coordinate with
the British 67 Squadron to defend Mingaladon Airfields and the port of Rangoon.
You also need to keep protecting the supply lines along the Burma Rd.

There are reports that the Japanese may have a limited number of zeros that
have just been ferried into Hanoi. Watch out gents. Those zeros are as fast as
they are nimble. They still don’t have any armor or self-sealing tanks, so keep
up your speed, hit ‘em hard and get the hell out of there. Don’t get caught up in
a dogfight with them, our goal is to defend Rangoon!

This might be our last fight as volunteers. I hear the army wants to absorb us
into the AAF. We’ll just see about that.

Wish I could be up there with you gents!

-Brig Gen Claire Lee Chennault, Commanding Officer, AVG
