Photo taken on May 11, 2019 shows James Bryant (Front), son of Flying Tigers veteran James E. Bryant, delivering a speech at the 4th Sino-American Second World War Friendship and Flying Tigers History Conference in Las Vegas, the United States. Cynthia Chennault, daughter of the legendary late U.S. General Claire Lee Chennault, still remembered how her beloved father described his feeling on the victory over Japan during World War II (WWII). In 1941, General Chennault recruited the American Volunteer Group, which was later known as the "Flying Tigers." During WWII, the U.S. general trained, organized and inspired both American and Chinese pilots to overcome language and cultural barriers to fight against the Japanese invaders. (Xinhua/Han Fang)
