Red Tails

The Tuskegee Airmen and Operation Halyard: An All-New Update for The Forgotten 500: A Penguin eSpecial from NAL Caliber



A brand-new story about World War II’s daring African-American heroes from the author of The Forgotten 500.
 
The Tuskegee Airmen were the first African-American pilots in the US military, and Operation Halyard was one of the most extraordinary rescue missions of World War II, described in Gregory Freeman’s The Forgotten 500. Now a newly discovered connection between them has come to light—the “Red Tails” flew fighter cover for the mission. The remarkable story is revealed here by the author whose work James Bradley calls “amazing [and] riveting.”
