"It is generally conceded that Lee Archer was the first and only black ace pilot," credited with shooting down five enemy planes, Dr. Roscoe Brown Jr., a fellow Tuskegee Airman and friend, said in a telephone interview Thursday. Archer was acknowledged to have shot down four planes, and he and another pilot both claimed victory for shooting down a fifth plane. An investigation revealed Archer had inflicted the damage that destroyed the plane, said Brown, and the Air Force eventually proclaimed him an ace pilot.
Because I can't defeat Woodman. If I had "Item 2" I could get past the floating blocks and win the Fire Weapon from Heatman then get the Leaf Shield, then beat Airman, but I don't have it.

No. The armed force remained firmly segregated until President Truman ordered an end to the practice in 1948. Michael Montagne
NO!

In fact Black people had participated in every American war, with no lessening in racial discrimination.
Sad but true.
The first step towards ending discrimination was the Korean War, followed by the Army allowing Black people to join the Army on a reasonably equal basis, and with a fairly equal opportunity for advancement. Once people worked side by side with one another the attitudes towards Black people started fading with some, a great step in the right direction.
