About the book >.>.> Tuskegee Airmen prevailed. They fought successfully at Pantelleria and bombed and strafed at Anzio. Joined in Italy by three more squadrons of black fighter pilots they converted to red-tailed P-51s and began the role in which they finally achieved the recognition they deserved. The “Red Tails” were eagerly sought after by their comrades in arms as their reputations grew and their victories mounted. The Tuskegee Experience was a great success! It set the precedent for the valiant roles blacks were to play in the fully integrated United States Air Force established in the postwar years by President Truman. Lavishly illustrated with the paintings of the late Roy E. La Grone an artist and proud member of the Tuskegee Airmen of World War II- Tuskegee’s Heroes is the courageous story of segregated fliers and support personnel who served so valiantly during World War II in North Africa Sicily Italy and throughout war-torn Europe. They contributed significantly in the Allied victory over Hitler’s Third Reich.
