Title
The Evolution of the U.S. National Air Insignia: 1861–Present
Abstract
The United States has displayed distinguishing marks on all of its military aircraft, from the observation balloons of the Civil War, through the airplanes of the First and Second World Wars, to today’s cruise missiles. Lavish illustrations show how the U.S. insignia have changed and adapted over time. (1997)
