Vernon Ghest of the 302nd fighter squadron, while flying his war-weary P-51C Mustang with the distinctive red tail markings of the 332nd fighter group, becomes Otto's nemesis. When Vernon and another airman from the Ninety-Ninth FS are eventually forced down, they present the Germans with a new problem as they attempt to insert the black airman into the all-white POW camp. Eventually, Vernon and his companion devise and implement an ingenious escape plan that allows them to escape to once more to fight the Luftwaffe in the skies over Germany.
