The Wild Blue Yonder (1985)

The spectacular story of the American flyboys from the first warplane in 1909 is vividly told in this fascinating production.  As part fo the remarkable In Defense Of Freedom series (narrated by Ken Howard), The Wild Blue Yonder probes the history of the United States Air Force from World War I to the Middle East crisis.

This is The United States Air Force Story, containing exciting footage of the American/German dogfights of the First World War, The Flying TIgers in action over the Pacific and the precision bombing of German factories that signaled the end of World War II.  You'll witness the Enola Gay flying over Hiroshima, the supersonic battles of the Korean War, and the bombing of North Vietnam.

These and other dramatic events document the incredible history of the Air Force that has served and protected this country throughout the 20th century- an important program to keep for all collectors of historic material.
