A Special Study of Operation Vittles: The Story of the Berlin Airlift is a comprehensive account of one of the most significant humanitarian efforts in history. Published by Aviation Operations Magazine, the book delves into the details of the Berlin Airlift, which took place from 1948 to 1949. The airlift was a response to the Soviet Union's blockade of West Berlin, which threatened the city's inhabitants with starvation. The book covers the political and military background of the blockade, the planning and execution of the airlift, and the impact it had on the people of Berlin and the world at large. It includes firsthand accounts from pilots, ground crews, and other personnel involved in the operation, as well as photographs and maps to illustrate the scale of the effort. In addition to its historical significance, the book also explores the lasting legacy of the Berlin Airlift, including its impact on the Cold War and its role in shaping the post-World War II world order. It is a must-read for anyone interested in aviation history, military history, or the history of humanitarian aid.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
