In Their Own Words:The Tuskegee Airmen

In Their Own Words: The Tuskegee Airmen tells the story of the famed aviation pioneers, the Tuskegee Airmen, who were the first African American pilots of the US Army Air Force. The men saw combat in the skies of the European Theater during World War Two, first as the 99th Pursuit Squadron, and eventually as the 332nd Fighter Group. They ignored the prevailing ideas of the time and accepted the challenge at hand. They proved their mettle and set a precedent that led to the integration of the Armed Forces. Complete with emotional interviews, rare photographs and films, and computer generated recreations, In Their Own Words: The Tuskegee Airmen chronicles the Airmen's story from the rocky start in 1941, to the Group's acceptance of the Congressional Gold Medal in 2007. Seventeen of the original Airmen came together to tell their story in a way never before seen: in their own words. The story is progressed by the different Airmen, each contributing an integral part without the reliance on narration. In its ninety minutes, In Their Own Words: The Tuskegee Airmen whisks the viewer through laughter and tears; all while telling a historic and inspirational story of hope and perseverance in the face of adversity. In Their Own Words: The Tuskegee Airmen has been overwhelmingly praised by audiences, critics, and entertainment industry personnel alike. An early version was requested by Lucasfilm to be used as reference by the filmmakers, actors, and crew members during principal photography in Prague on the set of Red Tails, a George Lucas account of the heroic story of the Tuskegee Airmen. By purchasing In Their Own Words: The Tuskegee Airmen, you are indeed receiving a piece of living history.
