Robin Olney spotted her father, Flying Tigers veteran Richard Olney, in a large group photo of the Flying Tigers on a wall of the Chongqing Stilwell Museum on Wednesday.  

"It's a moment I will never forget," Olney said in front of her father's picture. She is visiting China among a delegation composed primarily of Flying Tigers veterans and their family members.  

The 36-member delegation to Chongqing includes Flying Tigers veteran Harry Moyer, fellow Flying Tigers veteran Mel McMullen and Sino-American Aviation Heritage Foundation Chairman Jeffrey Greene.  

In 1941, a group of volunteer U.S. pilots, later known as the Flying Tigers, came to China, standing shoulder to shoulder with the Chinese people to fight the invading Japanese troops.
