I just found this set from ww11 Army Air Force 1941 flight school which you was sent to India in 1942 to fly L-5 small planes over the mountains. no maps or no weather, and no computers 500 planes crashed into the mountains over 2 years.
Then to Korea as a forward flyer and Vietnam in the 70s
Now i have pictures from all these wars, i cannot see the differences of Korea, or China, India prints.
