Official account of the Halyard Mission Foundation. Zvanični nalog fondacije "Misija Halijard". The Halyard Mission is one of the largest evacuations of fallen U.S. airmen in occupied Europe during WWII. From August 1944 to February 1945 with the help of the Serbian population and the O.S.S. around 500 airmen were transported to Allied bases. The goal of the Halyard Mission Foundation is to educate, commemorate and increase awareness of the Halyard Mission, the rescue of over 500 US airmen during WWII, and the role the Serbs played in the success of the mission. By doing this we hope to promote historical ties between the US and Serbia which are based on values of freedom and democracy. We share an important history, and that is an important story to tell.
