Horwatt, of Dallas, a veteran of 100 round trips and 729 hours combat time as pilot of ~~ a C-46 Curtis Commando at- a) TE lt de SS i ee ~ tended the China-Burma-India Theater of Operations Hump Pi- “lots Association's 50th Annual Reunion held August 30-Septem- ber 3 in New Orleans. This is an organization made up of World War II veterans who flew over the Himalayan Moun- tains to supply China, after the Japanese denied the U.S. and its allies traditional means through sea and land routes. The Hump Pilots Association has over 5,000 members who were engaged in the China-Burma- India theater of operations during World War II. A large portion of the flying originated from bases in India to Kumming, China, provid- ing the war material to aid the Chinese. This was the first time that such a massive airlift operation ever attempted and the price in crews and aircraft was stagger- ing. The November 19, 1945 is- sue of Time magazine reported on page 26: “Unofficial estimates were that 3,000 Allied transport and tactical aircraft had been lost among those jagged peaks (Hima- laya Mountains). But for this price, the Hump Pilots provided China, U.S. and allied units in China, with invalu- able aid: 78,000 tons went over the “Hump” in the peak month of July.” Those downed aircraft made an “aluminum trail” and the routes over the Hump took on that name. The weather, the most hazard- ous in the world, the mountains, highest in the world, along with Japanese fighter aircraft and bombers took a reat toll. One of the mottos of the CBI became “Bring me men to match my weather”. SHAN Neh No RUE IRS 3s RTA Hof 2 BACK MOUNTAIN HARVEST ASSEMBLY - 340 Carverton Rd., Trucksville. 696-1128. Pastor, Daniel S.
