Ascending to French skies nearly 6,000 times during World War I, the American Expeditionary Forces Balloon Section provided invaluable reconnaissance for soldiers on the ground. While the balloon operators – or “balloonatics,” as they called themselves – were light on their feet navigating this element of aerial warfare, their work was no light feat.Fly along with novelist Charles Lutz, author of “Eyes to the Sky,” as he recounts the true experience of 2nd Lt. Herbert Hudnut and the fateful incident that would set the trajectory of his life after the war – and inspire a novel.
