Cub Driver

The late Erik Shilling, who used to post regularly on this n.g., flew
for CAT along with McGovern. He had several missions into
Dienbienphu--as did another AVG Flying Tiger veteran, a ground crewman
who after his AVG hitch went back into the USAAF and became a pilot.
CAT's story (and McGovern's) is well told in the book Perilous
Missions, a history.
