FLYING FROM ROYAL AIR FORCE AIRFIELD DUBJAN INDIA . . . TO KUNMING YUNNAN CHINA . The "Hump" was the nickname of the world's tallest mountain range the Himalayas given by U.S. Army Air Force pilots. They flew bomber planes loaded with cargo to Kunming China in the C.B.I. China Burma & India theaters of World War 2 Asia. . The "Hump" was the one and only way to support the "A.V.G." "AMERICAN VOLUNTEER GROUP" later known as the famous "FLYING TIGERS" created and commanded by Major General Claire L. Chennault. . The flight from India at high-altitude in freezing aircraft temperatures required sheepskin flying uniforms. These bulky but warm flight jackets trousers and boots protected the flight crew from freezing to death. . The frequent bomber flights provided Chennault with the material to prosecute the air war against the Japanese air force: gasoline ammunition food rations medical supplies and other necessities. There was no land route to Kunming as the Japanese military forces had cut off western China from all allied support. . The two photographs were most likely taken at the Royal Air Force airfield at Dinjan India just prior to take off. The flight crew consisted of: pilot co-pilot navigator and a relief flier. . The first photograph the larger shows four airmen in sheepskin flight uniforms. The smaller photograph shows a pilot in typical sheepskin flight uniform: jacket trousers boots with his parachute attached to his back ready for take off to Kunming. .
