Billy Williams

The story of how a soft-spoken Williams let his bats do the talking for him -- all the way to the Baseball Hall of Fame -- is told in an hour-long documentary on Marquee Sports Network.

During the Second World War, a special project is begun by the US Army Air Corps to integrate African American pilots into the Fighter Pilot Program. Known as the "Tuskegee Airman" for the name of the airbase at which they were trained, these men were forced to constantly endure harassement, prejudice, and much behind the scenes politics until at last they were able to prove themselves in combat.
