Speaker: Doug Engel “Shawano Airport & the Flying Tigers: A Historic Link"
Nestled in the heart of Wisconsin, Shawano Airport is more than just a regional airfield, it’s a living testament to aviation history. One of its most fascinating connections traces back to the legendary the Flying Tigers, officially known as the American Volunteer Group (AVG), were a group of American volunteer pilots who flew in defense of China against Japan during World War II, earning renown for their bravery and skill.
