We should look back to this part of history, go against any kind of aggression, and cherish peace. Edward Beneda said in his remarks “For 4-generations my family has had very kind and loving hearts toward the Chinese people. My father often said over and over throughout his life, that the Chinese people on the ground, the farmers, civilians and soldiers, were the heroes because they saved his life. This is why our family loves the Chinese people so very much. And why we cannot say thank you enough for saving him. Our family is very excited to see the "The Blood Chit," TV series, and to meet the cast and crew and the people who filmed it.? This will be a great TV program, because it is a true story.” James Whitehead said that the dream and mission of the American Flying Tigers Historical Organization is to be realized by building the Flying Tigers Historical Park in Guilin, a joint project by both people.
