FALSE CLAIMS ABOUT THE TUSKEGEE AIRMEN

The Air Force Historical Research Agency is essentially the archives of the Air Force, and contains the histories of squadrons, groups, wings, numbered air forces, and major commands; mission reports; orders awarding honors to units and individuals; missing air crew reports; oral history interviews; personal papers of many Air Force personnel; and many other documents. If they did not demonstrate that they were far superior to the members of the six non-black fighter escort groups of the Fifteenth Air Force with which they served, they certainly demonstrated that they were not inferior to them, either. [...]they began at a line farther back, overcoming many more obstacles on the way to combat.
