Item description from seller

photos, [105]p. Blue cloth. White plastic comb binding. 28 cm. Title-page detached. Devotes one page ((three photos) to the first African American Aviation Squadron (unit number not given) to be located at Scott Field where the emphasis was on training in radio communication. This copy belonged to a white airman whose Radio Operators Course certificate is laid in on the page with his photo. 30 or so names and addresses of other airmen on the autograph pages at the end. There are no individual photos of the African American airmen (perhaps because they had not completed their training before this book was published).
