Chinese people will never forget old friends. Liang Guanglie, state councilor and China's Defense Minister stressed, "The Chinese people thank the old friend Gen. Joseph Warren Stilwell forever, who had made positive contributions to China's anti-fascist war." ... In 2003, the former residence of Gen. Stilwell in Chongqing was rebuilt into the "Stilwell Museum"... Likewise, the Chinese people will never forget the U.S. "Flying Tigers" which had fought side by side with the Chinese troops... The "Flying Tigers" Museum was opened to public officially in Zhijiang, China's Hunan Province in 2006 and the "Flying Tigers Research Society" was formed in Yunnan Province in 2007. And the work of searching the remains of the "Flying Tigers" members and the aircraft debris is still under way.
