The Tuskegee Airmen were the first African-American aviators in the U.S. Army
Serving at a time when the American Army was segregated, the Tuskegee Airmen were the first African American Aviators in America.
The 332d Fighter Group and the 99th Pursuit Squadron were the only black groups that fought in the World War II and were considered highly successful despite facing discrimination in and out of the army.
