The history of Cardinals begins with the creation of 1st Embarked Aviation Group in 1957 , the second year of the term of Juscelino Kubitschek . The first years of the new unit were difficult , marked by an acrimonious doctrinal conflict between the Air Force and Navy . However , since 1965 , the Cardinals embarked on the first aircraft carrier Minas Gerais to start a long period of 31 years of joint operations with high efficiency in a climate of harmonious coexistence that belied all the previous conflict .

In 1998 , the 1st Embarked Aviation Group was deactivated , giving rise to 4 ° / 7 ° Aviation Group which inherited its name and its traditions . Since then , operating from the historic Santa Cruz Air Base , the Cardinals protect the seas of Southeast and provide a service to the nation , as invaluable as little known .

The saga of Cardinals is told in this volume from a careful study of the historical unity , personal documents and interviews with veterans . The text is amplified with numerous photographs, most of which are novel , and specially prepared aircraft profiles .

Richly illustrated with historic and current photos as well as profiles of beautiful aircraft.

A historical book indispensable to RESEARCHERS and collectors .
Almost 100 photos , 16 color ! Illustrations : Sandro Dinarte
