Wings Of Glory: The Air Force Story - 3 Disc DVD Box Set
The story of the United States Air Force is a long and proud one, beginning with the first
flight of the Wright Brothers and taking its first rudimentary steps in the swirling aerial combat
of World War I in the skies over France. When World War II clearly establishes the need for a
separate service, the United States Air Force engage in the first jet air-to-air combat in the
crimson skies of Korea.
Come with us and witness the growth of the Air Force over the years through the authentic archival
images filmed by the combat cameramen of America's air service. Learn the special story of the men
and planes who wrested control of the skies from the enemy and provided America with security from
airborne attack. This is the exclusive story of the evolution of American airpower from its early
beginnings through the birth of the jet age. Discover how the Air Force grew from a few daring
young men to a force with capabilities beyond the wildest dreams of the early aviation visionaries.
This is the official story of the Air Force, the story of Wings Of Glory.
