AUTHORS: Chestley E. Talley and Kathy M. Graham
EUGENE JACQUES BULLARD, THE BLACK SWALLOW OF DEATH, AMERICA’S FIRST BLACK COMBAT PILOT.
Recognizing American Expatriate, Aviator and French National Military Hero, who guided the path into the skies for fellow trailblazing Black Pilots Bessie Coleman and the Tuskegee Airmen.
Engaged in an aerial dogfight while flying in the open cockpit of a SPAD S.VII, dubbed “the flying machine gun” (1), without a parachute and 17,000 feet above Verdun, France in 1917, Eugene Jacques Bullard, the Black Swallow of Death, became America’s first Black Combat Pilot, ironically fighting for France against the Germans during World War I.
Why was America’s First Black Combat Pilot fighting for France in World War 1? The full article, “TOUT SANG COULE ROUGE”, ALL BLOOD RUNS RED, recounting Eugene Jacques Bullard’s Odyssey from America to France will be published in the G20 Indonesia 2022 publication.
