Bio: The 1st American Volunteer Group (AVG) of the Chinese Air Forces in 1941–1942, famously nicknamed the Flying Tigers, was composed of pilots from the United States Army (USAAF), Navy (USN), and Marine Corps (USMC), recruited under presidential authority and commanded by Claire Lee Chennault. The ground crew and headquarters staff were likewise mostly recruited from the U.S. military, along with some civilians.

Reamer walks onto the hanger deck with a large cup of hot black coffee, as he slowly sips the black gold he's saluted by the knuckle draggers re-arming the Ravens Vipers. He comes to where the Flying Tigers Mk-II's are being attended to and stops next to his bird. He's saluted by the men loading the 30mm ammo into his wing guns. Reamer returns the salute and says as you were. Then he asks if his guns were cleaned to which they reply, "Yes Sir, they're as clean as a whistle and ready for action, Sir!"
As they began to load the AIM-9000 SRAAM missiles (Code name Firfox) to Reamers bird he asks them to stop for a moment. Reamer reaches into his pocket and pulls out an old polishing cloth and cleans the nose cones of all the missiles, then he allows the men to finish their task.
Reamer turns and walks away as he finishes the last of his now cold black coffee as he enters the squadron briefing room.
***ATTENTION FLYING TIGERS***
As you may have seen on the club's Facebook page, it's time for the Air Wing to dust off the cobwebs and get back to our business of killing toasters!
PILOTS: Report in and sound off so we can get an accurate count of active pilots!
Squadron Commanders: Get a list of these active pilots, we are currently trying to make a status board with each squadron and their active pilots. Also, remember to recruit your squadron. Welcome the new nuggets so we can fill out the squadrons evenly. We're not going to be able to plan missions and CAPs if we just have 2-3 people to show up at a time. Together we can make the Air Wing proud!
