At the age of seventeen, Samuel L. Broadnax, enamored with flying, enlisted and trained as a pilot at the Tuskegee Army Air Base. Although he left the Air Corps at the end of the Second World War, his experiences inspired him to talk with other pilots and black pioneers of aviation. Blue Skies, Black Wings recounts the history of African Americans in the skies from the very beginnings of manned flights.
From Charles Wesley Peters, who flew his own plane in 1911, and Eugene Bullard, a black American pilot with the French in World War I, to the 1945 Freeman Field mutiny against segregationist policies in the Air Corps, Broadnax paints a vivid picture of the people who fought oppression to make the skies their own.
Samuel L. Broadnax graduated from Tuskegee Army Air Base with Class-45 in March 1945 as a fighter pilot. One of the celebrated Tuskegee Airmen, he was assigned to the 332nd Replacement Training Unit. He later attended Yuba College, Howard University, and the University of California, Berkeley, and has worked as a newscaster and journalist. In 2006 the Tuskegee Airmen were awarded the Congressional Gold Medal of Honor.

I read Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes to my fifth graders every year. I can never finish without tears. These little cranes are a reminder that children are the true victims of war. And children are our hope to end these wars.
Great service from beginning to end. Easy to order, updated shipping info, delivered on time. Product was in excellent condition. Would use them again 👍👍
I recently bought seven Flags that were flown over the Arizona Memorial on December 7th 2025. I purchased these in memory of all the family members that served our country. They were given to the Sons or Daughters that are now holding the memory of their father. This is inspired by one family member who died during the Second World War and is buried in the American Cemetery in Holland.
With the certificate with each name and the American flag it is now a Treasure addition to their mantles. Thank you to all that served our military and our country.
I did hike to top of Diamondhead and wanted a shirt stating that I did. I loved the hike!!
If I had a suggestion it would be to be aware it runs a little small.
