Book Talk: The Tuskegee Airmen Chronology
August 2, 2018 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm
Join the Alabama Department of Archives and History on Thursday August 2 at 12:00, for a book talk presented by author and historian Dr. Daniel L. Haulman.
Dr. Haulman’s book, “The Tuskegee Airmen Chronology: A Detailed Timeline of the Red Tails and Other Black Pilots of WWII” provides a unique year-by-year overview of the fascinating story of the Tuskegee Airmen, chronicling important events in the formation of the first military training for black pilots in United States history, the phases of their training at various air fields in Tuskegee and elsewhere, their continued training at other bases around the U. S., and their deployment overseas. On August 2, Dr. Haulman will share the stories of these servicemen who fought two enemies, Nazis in Europe and racism at home, and ultimately earned a hard-won double victory.
Copies of the book will be available for purchase at the event.
This event is free.
