Historical events and people critical to America's development in late May from the 1700s to 1900s are highlighted in this episode. There were some setbacks, like the sinking of the submarine "Squalus" in 1939, but the later half of this month was mainly filled with triumphs. In aviation, Lindbergh is the first to make a transatlantic flight from New York to Paris in 1927 and Jacqueline Cochran makes flight history in 1953 by being the first woman to fly faster than the speed of sound. An expedition led by Colonel John Hunt is the first to successfully climb Mount Everest in 1953. Other achievements include the opening of the Golden Gate Bridge, the New York stock exchange, and the founding of the American red cross.
