RX-8, CBI, & US flag

I'm not super patriotic but my grandfather, an immigrant and a World War II veteran, collected unique US flag memorabilia (especially fascinating ties and belts).

He was in the Air Transport Command (precursor to the Air Force) in the China Burma India (CBI) theater of war during World War II. If any other RX8 owners are familiar with this please post here or contact me by PM. I am considering a special CBI emblem for our car and would like your input and/or if you are interested to order it with me (as I will order it regardless)

He has passed on but this pic would make him proud...enjoy.

(I have the pic in much higher resolution if anyone is interested)

Yeah thats a nice shot, would be even better if you could have gotten a bit closer to the flag.
