The Tuskegee airmen were the first African-American Military Aviators to serve in WWII. This was before the time of Dr. King, and the Jim Crow Laws where still in effect. During WWII, the Military, like many branches of the US Government, was racially Segregated. They where subject to discrimination inside and outside of the US Military. They where known for training and flying with Distinction, despite the discriminating times of the 1940s.
