Three items: TQS, one page, 8.5 x 11. Headed at the top, “Memorable Event,” in full: “The greatest thrill was the first time I ever flew with the Flying Tigers before I joined them. You see, they didn’t think much of us regular fliers. I had come in and gone to sleep under the mosquito netting, when a bunch of the Flying Tigers burst into my room. Not knowing what was happening, I grabbed the revolver I kept under my pillow and pointed it at them. They had come to ask if I would go on a mission with them, never thinking that I would. I readily agreed. They were really testing me out. At one point while we were up, someone in the group pointed out a Japanese train below and told me to attack it. I went diving down, straight for the train. I had just assumed that some of them were with me, but as I looked around I realized that I had no wing cover. They had sent me in alone to see what I was made of. From that point on I was in, and they became by best friends”; commemorative cover honoring Scott, signed in black ink; and a satin-finish 7 x 5 photo of Scott in the cockpit, signed in black felt tip, “Robert L. Scott, 23rd Fighter Group, China—1942 (22 kills).” In fine condition.
