Join us as we honor the achievements and challenges of one of the country’s first African-American airmen, WWII pilot Lee Hayes, of East Hampton. The Suffolk County Historical Society will present Mr. Hayes with an honorary plaque, and Mr. Hayes will give a first-hand account of his unique experiences as an Army Air Corps bombardier. Refreshments will be served at the opening of the ceremony.
