TYBEE ISLAND — In the tradition of the highly praised World War II miniseries “Band Of Brothers,” the newly released miniseries by Apple TV, “Masters Of The Air”, tells the story of the Americans who won the air war against Germany during World War II. The series details what life was like for the American airmen who flew the terrifying bombing missions over Germany that slowly but surely crippled the German war machine and enabled the essential Allied victory.
Without question, one of the most powerful instruments employed by the United States and her Allies to achieve total victory in World War II was the U.S. Eighth Air Force. It was formed in Savannah in January 1942, shortly after the Japanese surprise attack on Pearl Harbor forced the U.S. to enter the war.
