      This is the remarkable first-person account of Lt. Colonel Harry T. Stewart, Jr., one of the last surviving Tuskegee Airmen, who flew 43 combat missions in Italy—including one legendary mission in which he shot down three German planes in one day. Stewart and his fellow pilots faced segregation, prejudice, and disrespect—and still, day after day, they took to the skies to battle America's enemies.
