The Triple Nickles. The Mission They Never Forgot.
In the summer of 1945, the 555th Parachute Infantry Battalion — the U.S. Army's first all-Black airborne unit — was deployed not to the beaches of Europe, but to the forests of the Pacific Northwest. Their mission: Operation Firefly. Their enemy: Japanese incendiary balloons threatening to ignite the American homeland.
They jumped into smoke. They fought fire. They were never given the recognition they deserved — until now.
This all-over-print crew neck tee carries their story across every inch of fabric. Wear it on Independence Day. Wear it every day.
