Flying Tigers Friendship School built in Guangxi to build Sino-American bond

Luo Yuanjun, the principal of Huxi Experimental Middle School, hopes that through this program, friendly seeds will be sown between the young people of the two schools.

In 1941, General Claire Lee Chennault of the United States established the "American Volunteer Group" (Flying Tigers) of the China Air Force to fight against Japanese aggressors together with the Chinese military and civilians.

During their mission to support China, over 2,000 American Flying Tigers sacrificed their lives in battle, and more than 200 were rescued by the Chinese people.

Liuzhou is one of the places where the Flying Tigers fought.

Harry Moyer expressed his surprise that many Chinese students know the story of the Flying Tigers. He said that with the establishment of the Flying Tigers Friendship School between the two countries, the younger generation will deepen friendships and remember the bond between the two sides.
