History

The White Lions were a Russian fighter squadron acting on behalf of Nazi Germany in 1941. Although most of the members were part of the Russian Air Force, the squadron was led by British turncoat Death Mayhew. Mayhew patterned the White Lions as Facism's answer to the alleged Bolshevik fighting team, the Blackhawks. Flying JU 88 dive bombers, the White Lions conducted a raid against the Valentine-Prendergast Airplane factory in Moscow, Russia. The Blackhawks were present and Captain Stanislaus Drozdowski lost his life in the bombing.
