THE HUMP

OK so the Hump was flown from Ledo and not from Koirengei or Pallel.

But gotta hunch they were the ancillary airfields I have been calling them, even theugh I now learn they were manned by FDR's American Air Combat Corps.

But the Flying Tigers is a sticky tag so I will let it remain aloft for a bit. Maybe it has already since I started yammering about it in 2002.

If ideas are to stick, as the new book says. they have to be "simple, unexpected, concrete, credible, emotional, and story-containing." The Flying Tigers have them all, plus darned sexy.

I am semi-sticky after all. Ha.
