In this tribute to David Lee “Tex” Hill, Roy Grinnell
conveys the extraordinarily strong bond of friendship between
“Tex” and General Claire Chennault. You can almost
touch the leather of Gen. Chennault’s worn A-2 jacket and
feel the steam rising from Tex’s chipped cup, as you study
the image. Gen. Chennault’s rugged facial features are softened
as he gazes out into the wild blue, waiting for his friend to
return.
A portion of each sale will benefit the Nimitz Museum, in Fredericksburg,
Texas. They are planning a new wing of the museum which will
be known as the China Burma India wing, with part of a wall dedicated
to Tex. |
