The Debrief - Flying Tigers: Taking the Fight to the Japanese

There was a time when some Americans sought adventure in foreign lands and often took up arms and fought as foreign volunteers. While essentially soldiers of fortune, many were driven by ideology more than profit. 113/c2jPK04/VWR-3-1_4SvFV1jG777fPnf6W4jRtpV5cNkgkN8fXWBx3qgyTW7lCdLW6lZ3mzW8mYFcs49PSTCW6LFftL3V6Qm4N6mq1BR8_CxRN5Kc5MKjgkLTW35c10s82XSRpW8qgmnq70P3zQW5G-KyD8rKlM7W6yfjz15VNnMKW4BbBj52wbY_9W8kg8Vy8C-4qzW7-3NZy5yfG3TW34RC674GDyqcW5Lmjyj201wPVW4VzRzZ7j69YDW7TL-_T88tpHzW655RV28BQpS9W1bXGkw7kd46GW6GSrgP4ByHXbW5dyDxw8JN--6W6sv03X4TnbcvW8MDpjr4cYDb0N1nN3XdyykjSW9hy1G05HFQNbN4d9tpDv8rRMf1SNHPd04 [tal-tigers](113/c2jPK04/VWR-3-1_4SvFV1jG777fPnf6W4jRtpV5cNkgkN8fXWC63qgyTW8wLKSR6lZ3lDW6pwt472hCmVHW2t_mHG4kxpfmN9kZXb_DxfpWW2S4y0N8FTKFDW6zkcpc9hgypXN6dPf_lCvpcQW5NdC-l6n9DFXN4hMHLnkRzY1W407r5m23YBbVW2q3zk77S2CVPW8SKrcG1ZjzcYW4cfqm98LF673W5Q73f9112KfCVVbZDh60ptL1W53nfrT34672hW2JKfBf799FJbW9lHDFB6V0R7jVvJpVJ3hfdZTW1Hp14D1Y66hmW2rrl8f5b8bVgW83gpky6184ffW2901CK7hWBj5W88TR1f4K7lC4W4vmMpF2L6nyTW7xzlCj83JsvxW9fbM815lg8_9W9k6Sf06-ZkL4W7YX-Ky12FwYRf3WFQTW04) [FLYING TIGERS: TAKING THE FIGHT TO THE JAPANESE](113/c2jPK04/VWR-3-1_4SvFV1jG777fPnf6W4jRtpV5cNkgkN8fXWC63qgyTW8wLKSR6lZ3prW3d7QKp6XwmvCVZfkY23krZ77W5TxCDL7CXmf-W4WZTdH85hDs7W3282QF5Zv4v6W8NGfg53NqHQRW2F0HGS21F89sW6ShlFp5ytfqKVQLTR15dmC8CW6jwdfP4z89jLVTdq9J3d3Zb_VBKpVk9kr9j1W7ZDqlZ79y_hhN73lg1mxMVj0W40w9Vh2VFv7zW5YZj8j4RfdHmW7sqtD662VBjvW5Ff5YS7ZWC4mW72W-XB21plmpW5sY-Pm5FXSqgW1ghhK116sQrFW3Ng1qZ3XG-HDW4mNJ9b2Ts1MHW974XDf5YF7ZVW8p2-641XLx17W7zvYHJ7q3c7mVfJ3FQ7rKHp_W4GX80C4v4bNnf7l1BPW04) By Peter Suciu April 6th, 2024 - There was a time when some Americans sought adventure in foreign lands and often took up arms and fought as foreign volunteers.

First up, we have Peter Suciu strapping us into the cockpit of a P-40 Warhawk and taking to the skies of China. Proving that the seemingly unstoppable Japanese could be beaten, the Flying Tigers became true American heroes in those early, dark days of World War II.

Next, we have Robert Sadowski dissecting the details of the humble cartridge. While we simply have to pull a trigger to make them fire, there are a lot of complex details involved in making that process happen every time.
