What are the names of the Haitian Tuskegee airmen?

The Haitian Tuskegee Airmen include notable figures such as Eugene Jacques Bullard, who was the first African American military pilot, and other pilots like Charles B. Hall and James H. Hasty. While Bullard served before the establishment of the Tuskegee program, he is often associated with the legacy of the Airmen. The Tuskegee Airmen were primarily African American pilots trained in Alabama during World War II, and they played a crucial role in the fight against segregation and discrimination in the U.S. military.

Who was Tuskegee Airman Peter Whittaker?

I have read what appear to be the complete combat records of the 99th, 100th, 301 st and 302nd Squadrons, and can find no mention at all of Peter Whittaker. This does not mean he wasn't a member of the Tuskegee Airmen, but simply that he did nothing to warrant naming him in the combat logs of the units. His name is listed in the Graduating Pilots list as -Whittaker, Peter H. 44-C-SE 3/12/1944 2nd Lt. 0824845 Detroit MI. - - This means he graduated as a pilot in December 1944 and would then have gone to a combat unit in early 1945. Unfortunately no further information has been found yet.


Who were the commanding officers of the Tuskegee Airmen?

The commanding officers of the Tuskegee Airmen included Colonel Benjamin O. Davis Jr., who was the first African American to be promoted to brigadier general in the U.S. Air Force and led the 332nd Fighter Group. Other notable leaders included Lieutenant Colonel George S. Roberts and Colonel William H. McGhee. These officers played crucial roles in overseeing the training and operations of the Tuskegee Airmen during World War II, advocating for their capabilities and contributions to the war effort.
