A friend who was serving in Kuwait sent me this flag last summer. It looked great in the display case! |
| I was really
proud of the certificate!
The 74th Fighter Squadron was doing a hazardous job enforcing the no-fly zone over Iraq, not forgotten by friends and family - but not thought of by many of us . . . Claire Chennault is one of my heroes and I felt like I had my own piece of "Flying Tigers" history. |

But the only
flag I could find to buy on North Michigan Ave was a small
flag on a stick. Just not the statement I wanted to make!
So the flag the Flying Tigers carried over Iraq has come out of retirement
in a display case and is now waving from my balcony. A friend told
me the other day. "I saw your flag. I just knew that had
to be your flag." I never thought of my self as especially
patriotic, so it felt good to know that when someone saw one flag -- they
knew it had to be mine.
We may not always wear or display our flag, but we fight like tigers when it is threatened. Written that Black September |
