Re: Chuck Older 23rd Fighter Group

This is the closet I have come to a flying schedule. I got it from the grandson of Jack Canary, who was a North American tech rep in China. Canary also brought back some great color photos from his travels during WWII.

Once the war was over, the 118th was soon disbanded. Wayne Johnson, a pilot with the 118th said he was in the 118th HQ and asked what was going to happen with all the aerial film from the planes and paperwork. He was told to take what he wanted. Wayne filled his footlocker with film and other stuff. He took it to the dock in Shanghai to board a ship home. He took his eyes off of the footlocker briefly and then it was gone.
