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 WWI in the skies over France.

The first challenge for the new service is just over the horizon, as planes of the 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.
