War movies always tell important stories and Air Force films in particular explore one of the world’s most difficult and dangerous jobs.
While cinematic history is full of movies about the military and war, films about the Air Force in particular are essential because of the important stories they tell about one of the most dangerous jobs in the world. The Air Force is one of six branches of the United States military including the Army, Coast Guard, Marine Corps, Navy, and the Space Force. Through history, the Air Force has played a key role in many conflicts such as World War I and World War II.
9 Flyboys For an earlier depiction of the Air Force, 2006's Flyboys explores the experiences of American pilots joining up with the French Air Service during World War I. In particular, the film follows pilots Blaine Rawlings, Reed Cassidy, and Eugene Skinner and their heroic actions against the German forces attempting to attack the French. Like any good war movie, Flyboys includes acts of bravery, examples of friendship and understanding among men, and romance during wartime.
6 The Tuskegee Airmen Yet another true story adapted to the screen is 1995's The Tuskegee Airmen. Following the first African American combat pilots in the United States Army Air Corps during World War II, the movie explores how these men not only succeed at the arduous task of becoming Air Force pilots, but also how they overcome constant prejudice in the process. Without a doubt, The Tuskegee Airmen is an incredible and inspiring story, but it is also heavy in its themes of racism and war.
