The Tuskegee Airmen were racially discriminated against both within the army and without. The Tuskegee Airmen were tagged as trainees despite some having served in the army for several years and some with hundreds of flight hours. They were not permitted to mingle with white soldiers and were denied access to most officer's clubs. Many local businesses would not server the airmen and they were not permitted to hold command posts until the war was nearly over.
