Col. Skip Hinman, 23rd Fighter Group commander, speaks to the crowd at a ceremony at Hurlburt Field, Fla., here Nov. 12. Three former pilots and crew chiefs of the 23rd Fighter Group, Moody Air Force Base, Ga., were honored with their names stenciled on the side of the plane. "I've read all the history books regarding this group, but these guys are the real heroes," said Colonel Hinman. "Though just a few names are recognized today, they really symbolize all of the Flying Tigers and the planes we've flown."
