Tuskegee Airmen

I would have to put this film into one of my all time classics.
"Tuskegee Airmen"
Is about Black fliers from America during WWII and what they went through from getting into the flight program to being shafted along the way. I know there is historical content in the film along with the typical hollywood crap but is a true eye opener of how racist our forefathers could be. Glad things are changing for the better. They had some great pilots and the interesting fact that they lost no bomber crew while flying bomber escort (according to thefilm) is proof that they can certainly hold their own.

Just my two cents

Cheers
