The WWII glider pilots were the pioneers in aerial vertical envelopment now known as the vertical envelope. They were caught in the chasm between the army and air arms of the Army Air Forces.

By subscribing and spreading the word we are doing what historians neglected to do - giving these men their rightful place in history, a place many paid for with their lives.
