From the publisher: "A-Train is the story of one of the black Americans who during World War II graduated from Tuskegee AL Flying School and served as a pilot in the Army Air Corps 99th Pursuit Squadron. Charles W. Dryden presents a fast-paced balanced and personal account of what it was like to prepare for a career traditionally closed to African Americans how he coped with the frustrations and dangers of combat and how he along with many fellow black pilots navigators bombardiers and crewmen emerged with a magnificent war record. Under the command of Colonel Benjamin O. Davis Jr. the Tuskegee airmen fought over North Africa Sicily and Europe escorting American bomber crews who respected their 'no-losses' record. Some were shot down many of them were killed or captured by the enemy and several won medals of valor and honor. But the airmen still faced great barriers of racial prejudice in the armed forces and at home. As a member of that elite group of young pilots who fought for their country overseas while being denied civil liberties at home Dryden presents an eloquent story that will touch each and every reader." From Wikipedia: "Alexander Jefferson November 15 1921 – June 22 2022 was an American Air Force officer famous as one of the Tuskegee Airmen the 332nd Fighter Group. He served in the United States Army Air Forces during World War II. His book Red Tail Captured Red Tail Free: Memoirs of a Tuskegee Airman and POW is a personal memoir of those who served America in World War II and after." Dennis Mills and Burton Lowe were also Tuskegee Airmen / Red Tails. Richard Macon a Captain CPT with the US Air Force USAF Tuskegee Airmen was the first black Prisoner of War POW during World War II. -- per DPLA. SIGNED by the AUTHOR and 5 other Tuskegee Airmen.

‎Jean du Plessis de Grenédan est un officier de marine, né à Rennes le 15 janvier 1892, décédé le 21 ou 22 décembre 1923 dans le ciel de Sicile. Pilote de ballon dirigeable breveté en 1917, il s'est rendu célèbre en commandant le Dixmude, l'un des deux zeppelins français, et surtout en établissant des records mondiaux à son bord. Sa disparition en mer Méditerranée, à bord du Dixmude, le 21 ou 22 décembre 1923, a donné lieu à une formidable polémique. Le dirigeable LZ-114 (ex-L-72) a été construit en 1917. Il s'agit, à l'époque, du plus grand dirigeable au monde. Ses caractéristiques sont les suivantes : longueur 226 m, volume de 68.500 m3 d'hydrogène, diamètre 24 m, hauteur totale 28 m, poids total 85 tonnes, charge utile 55 tonnes, 7 moteurs Maybach à essence de 260 chevaux, 6 hélices propulsives, vitesse maximale de 80 km/h, vitesse de croisière maximale 60 km/h. En 1920, en conséquence de l'armistice, le dirigeable est livré par les Allemands aux autorités françaises à Maubeuge. Jean du Plessis (lieutenant de vaisseau) le baptise Dixmude en souvenir des fusiliers-marins morts en défendant la ville belge de Dixmude. Le 10 août 1920, il est en état de marche. Il arrive le 11 août en 3 h sur Paris, survole la Concorde et les Champs-Élysées, et part vers le centre aéronautique de Cuers-Pierrefeu (près de Toulon). Dans la nuit du 21 au 22 décembre 1923, revenant de Tunisie, le dirigeable 21-12L-72 disparaît dans un orage avec 50 hommes à bord (équipage : 43, passagers : 7). Le 26 décembre, des pêcheurs de Sciacca (Sicile) remontent dans leur filet le corps de Jean du Plessis. Ce drame marqua la fin de l'usage à titre militaire de dirigeables. Jean du Plessis eut droit à des obsèques nationales célébrées à Toulon le 5 janvier 1924...

From the rear cover: "'You have to come home darling you just have to' Joan Klinke pleaded with her Army Air Corps husband in a diary entry dated October 13 1944. She began the journal on the day a telegram arrived from the War Department. It informed her that Second Lieutenant Raymond Bernard Klinke was Missing in Action over the skies above Germany. During World War II the United States Army inducted over eight million Americans into its ranks. The military turned each of those men into a soldier. Ray Klinke a clerk before the war became one of those transformations a dramatic one popularly known as a 'flyboy.' Unlike most other personal histories from World War II the story of his training service and months as a prisoner of war can be chronicled in detail because Ray and Joan saved their letters and diaries. What they went through is representative of what other couples experienced during the war. As such Ray and Joan's story is the story of their era.". 1st ed No additional printings listed. Softcover.
