The Tuskegee Airmen did not lose a single bomber to enemy fire in any mission
The African American fighter pilots who fought in WWII are called the Tuskegee Airmen and they won more medals than any air unit in WWII. If you ever see the movie about them listed on TV it is well worth watching.
The Tuskegee airmen lost 27 bombers which was far less than any other unit.
I doubt any of the airmen are still alive today.
Yes, the Tuskegee Airmen produced several ace fighter pilots during World War II. Notably, Lieutenant Charles B. Hall, Lieutenant George S. Roberts, and Captain Benjamin O. Davis Jr. were among those who achieved ace status, each downing at least five enemy aircraft. Their exceptional skills and bravery contributed significantly to the success and recognition of the Tuskegee Airmen in the U.S. military.
There was no Tuskegee airman named Calvin Hobbes. The Tuskegee Airmen were African American military pilots who served during World War II, and a search does not show any record of a member by that name.
Yes, some of the Tuskegee Airmen were members of the Prince Hall Freemasonry. The organization, which is historically significant within the African American community, included several individuals who served as pilots and support personnel during World War II. The Tuskegee Airmen's legacy of excellence and courage often intersected with their involvement in various social and community organizations, including Masonic lodges. However, specific names and details about their Masonic affiliations may not be widely documented.
Twenty one airmen died there. They were war captives.
They were needed because they needed thousands of airmen. They were exceptional fighters too. They did not lose any of their airplanes and won more medals than any other air fighter group in World War 2. The black tank regimen was exceptional too. So were other forces.
Yes they did, it is an utter and total BS myth that they did not lose a single bomber, there loses were among the lowest of any fighter squadrons. But it is debatable if it was more skill or the equipment i.e P51 Mustang
It ended when the war ended; a number of military units (including white units, as well as black ones) were disbanded when combat ceased and there was no longer any need for them. The Tuskegee Airman had performed their job with distinction and now (by 1946), that job was finished. But many remained in the military. After President Truman desegregated the armed forces in the late 1940s, a number of the Airmen were hired by the U.S. Air Force, where they served as flight instructors or trainers.
