(Second World War)

(Second World War) "Keep 'em flying" is our battle cry!

"Keep 'Em Flying" captures a salient moment of mobilization and fervor in American history. The bold, symbolic use of the U.S. flag flying alongside three B-17 planes in formation signifies the ascendancy of air power as a strategic imperative during the Second World War. The rise of military aviation, with the U.S. Army Air Forces at the forefront, embodied a transformative period in warfare strategies, changing the face of global conflict.
