This undated photo provided by the Chennault Aviation and Military Museum in Monroe, La., shows an exhibit of artifacts from Maj. Richard Sherman, who flew 52 missions over China during World War II. Sherman was in the 11th Bomb Squadron of the Army's 14th Air Force under Gen. Claire Chennault, who nicknamed the 14th the Flying Tigers after the volunteer fighter group he had created while acting as a civilian advisor to nationalist China to defend that nation before the U.S. entered World War II. Sherman died Wednesday, Jan. 9, 2019, in Monroe. (Nell Calloway/Chennault Aviation and Military Museum via AP) **FILE**
