*** About Tuskegee Airmen: The Tuskegee Airmen were a group of African-American military pilots (fighter and bomber) who fought in World War II. Officially, they formed the 332nd Fighter Group and the 477th Bombardment Group of the United States Army Air Forces. The name also applies to the navigators, bombardiers, mechanics, instructors, crew chiefs, nurses, cooks, and other support personnel. All black military pilots who trained in the United States trained at Moton Field, the Tuskegee Army Air Field, and they fought with distinction, primarily in the European theater, including the strategic bombing of Germany. Their impressive performance earned them more than 150 Distinguished Flying Crosses, helped encourage the eventual integration of the United States Armed Forces, and paved the way for future African-American pilots and other military personnel.
