Four newly recruited pilots are united by a desire to serve their country, at a time when black flyers are not welcomed in the Air Force. Now, through the brutal demands of their training, to the perils of flying over nations at war, the men they call "The Tuskegee Airmen" must undertake the riskiest mission of their lives--to prove to America that courage knows no color. Their success could earn them respect, save lives and help win a terrible war. Their failure could destroy more hopes and dreams than their own. 521 $a Rated PG-13. 538 $a DVD. 541 $d 20140729. 546 $a Closed-captioned for the hearing impaired. 610 10 $a United States $b Fighter Group, 332nd $b Fighter Group, 332nd $v Drama. 650 1 $a African American air pilots $x History $v Drama. 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $x Participation, African American $v Drama. 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $x Aerial operations, American $v Drama. 655 0 $a Films for the hearing impaired. 700 $a Markowitz, Robert. 700 $a Fishburne, Laurence, $d 1961- 700 $a Warner, Malcolm-Jamal. 700 $a Vance, Courtney B. 700 $a Braugher, Andre. 700 $a McDonald, Christopher, $d 1955- 710 $a HBO Pictures. 941 $a 1 952 $l XFPB697 $d 20140806100437.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=DF6D15621D3311E4AFEA258CDAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
