Operation Halyard Commemoration in Serbia

The American and Serbian flags are displayed together at a historic marker, detailing a part of Operation Halyard at a ranch in Pranjani, Serbia, Nov. 17, 2016. The U.S. State Department, U.S. Air Force, Royal Air Force and Serbian Armed Forces were in attendance to commemorate the event and the heroic actions of the Serbian people. Operation Halyard was the rescue mission to save more than 500 Allied Airmen who were shot down over Serbia during World War II. The local Serbians housed and fed the downed Airmen, while also keeping their presence a secret from the German forces searching for them. (U.S. Air Force photo/Tech. Sgt. Ryan Crane)
