The 320th Barrage Balloon Battalion was the only unit of African-American combat soldiers in the segregated U.S. Army to land on D-Day. They stormed Omaha and Utah Beaches early on June 6, 1944. They've been written out of history. Movies don't show them. Most books don't mention them. But they were there. A new book tells their story: Forgotten: The Untold Story of D-Day's Black Heroes, At Home and At War by Linda Hervieux (HarperCollins, October 2015)..

A barrage balloon is a large balloon tethered with metal cables, used to defend against low-level aircraft attack by damaging the aircraft on collision with the cables, or at least making the attacker's approach more difficult. Some versions carried small explosive charges that would be pulled up against the aircraft to ensure its destruction. Barrage balloons were regularly employed only against low-flying aircraft, the weight of a longer cable making them impractical for higher altitudes.
In 1938 the British Balloon Command was established to protect cities and key targets such as industrial areas, ports and harbours. Balloons were intended to defend against dive bombers flying at heights up to 5,000 feet (1,500 m), forcing them to fly higher and into the range of concentrated anti-aircraft fire—anti-aircraft guns could not traverse fast enough to attack aircraft flying at low altitude and high speed. By the middle of 1940 there were 1,400 balloons, a third of them over the London area.

The 320th Barrage Balloon Battalion was the only unit of African-American combat soldiers in the segregated U.S. Army to land on D-Day. They stormed Omaha and Utah Beaches early on June 6, 1944. They've been written out of history. Movies don't show them. Most books don't mention them. But they were there. A new book tells their story: Forgotten: The Untold Story of D-Day's Black Heroes, At Home and At War by Linda Hervieux (HarperCollins, October 2015)..
