Tentative plans are for
three bus trips within the Washington area with the
possibility of a tour of the White House. If that tour can be
arranged those who go must have some form of picture
identification, such as a valid driver’s license or a valid
passport.

No group of fliers since the Flying Tigers of China has ever
emerged from the war with greater glory than the world famous
Liberator unit . . . the JOLLY ROGERS. Month after month,
since September, 1942, American newspapers and magazines have
brimmed over with colorful stories about this most colorful
of all B-24 outfits. Less celebrated Liberator units have
complained that all these laurels fell to the JOLLY ROGERS
because of their fascinating name and twin-tail insignia -
a huge skull surmounting two crossed bombs.
