Sure. . . But. . .
The problem is, the Japanese took over all of the German islands, and, as far as we know now, Earhart crashed and survived, and was captured by the Japanese. My dad read a book about new information that was found only 10 years ago, that she and her copilot were executed. WI she does not crash, or manages to land somewhere and finds help? She is a HUGE hero, bigger than Lindberg. Way more women pilots, and she would give the female ferry pilots a HUGE boost. I doubt you would get American combat pilots in World War 2, but maybe in Vietnam. Then again, maybe not.
