Former U.S. Flying Tigers pilot Glen Beneda (1st R) and other Flying Tigers veterans pose with a stone roller which was used to level the runway for Flying Tigers' aircraft during the World War II at Chenggong Airport in Kunming, southwest China's Yunnan Province, on Sept. 10, 2005. The sacrifices Chinese and Americans made side by side in the war are our common heritage which should be cherished by our two countries, said Edward Beneda, vice chairman of the Sino-American Aviation Heritage Foundation (SAAHF) and son of U.S. Flying Tigers pilot Glen Beneda, "We disagree from time to time, but the important thing is remembering the history, remembering the investment that we have in the lives of the Chinese and the Americans."
