tuskegee airmen

  • Question:-Tuskegee airmen!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!?
    Can anyone tell me about the tuskegee airmen??? Like what they did and why

    Answer:-I know you could have looked this up, but then so can everyone who asks questions here lol.

    Here's the textbook answer:
    The Tuskegee Airmen were dedicated, determined young men who enlisted to become America's first black military airmen, at a time when there were many people who thought that black men lacked intelligence, skill, courage and patriotism. They came from every section of the country, with large numbers coming from New York City, Washington, Los Angeles, Chicago, Philadelphia and Detroit. Each one possessed a strong personal desire to serve the United States of America at the best of his ability.

    The black airmen who became single-engine or multi-engine pilots were trained at Tuskegee Army Air Field (TAAF) in Tuskegee Alabama. The first aviation cadet class began in July 1941 and completed training nine months later in March 1942. Thirteen started in the first class. Five successfully completed the training, one of them being Captain Benjamin O. Davis, Jr., a West Point Academy graduate. The other four were commissioned second lieutenants, and all five received Army Air Corps silver pilot wings.

    From 1941 through 1946, nine hundred and ninety-four pilots graduated at TAAF, receiving commissions and pilot wings. Black navigators, bombardiers and gunnery crews were trained at selected military bases elsewhere in the United States. Mechanics were trained at Chanute Air Base in Rantoul, Illinois until facilities were in place in 1942 at TAAF.

    Four hundred and fifty of the pilots who were trained at TAAF served overseas in either the 99th Pursuit Squadron (later the 99th Fighter Squadron) or the 332nd Fighter Group. The 99th Fighter Squadron trained in and flew P-40 Warhawk aircraft in combat in North Africa, Sicily and Italy from April 1943 until July 1944 when they were transferred to the 332nd Fighter Group in the 15th Air Force.

    The outstanding record of black airmen in World War II was accomplished by men whose names will forever live in hallowed memory. Each one accepted the challenge, proudly displayed his skill and determination while suppressing internal rage from humiliation and indignation caused by frequent experiences of racism and bigotry, at home and overseas. These airmen fought two wars - one against a military force overseas and the other against racism at home and abroad.

    The airmen who did not go overseas and trained at Selfridge Field, Michigan as bomber crew in the 477th Medium Bombardment Group experienced a great deal of racism. These highly trained military officers were treated as "trainees" and denied access to the base officers' club, an act contradictory to Army regulations.

    FYI: The will be another upcoming movie about them called "Red Tails." It will be a film about the Tuskegee Airmen being developed by George Lucas and will hopefully come this or next year with Samuel Jackson.
  • Question:-How did the Tuskegee airmen fly so masterfully if they had Syphilis?
    The Tuskegee airmen were a group of ace pilots who happened to be African American. There were "studies" done on them and in the course of events, they contracted Syphilis. How is it that their piloting was not negatively affected by their condition?

    Answer:-Because they didn't have syphilis. You are confusing two completely different things.

    The Tuskegee Airmen were the first group of Black pilots to fly for the US Military - and they were very very good at what they did.

    The Tuskegee Syphilis study involved a large group of Black men who already had syphilis. When a treatment for syphilis was eventually discovered, the treatment was intentionally withheld from them - just so that the progression of their disease could be watched.
  • Question:-Who knows about the Tuskegee Airmen and the Tuskegee Experiment?
    Detail the history of the Tuskegee Airmen and their contributions to the military. Also, give the summary of the Tuskegee Experiment.

    I NEED HELP BIG TIME!
    Please help me out with a dumb project that I stupidly procrastinated on.
    Thank you:D
    Thank you guys for your responses.
    I just needed a little help with my project, and yes, I know their two different things, thank you for mentioning the obvious GRETA.

    Answer:-Tuskegee Airmen and Tuskegee Experiment are 2 different things.

    The Tuskegee Airmen were the first african-american pilots in the history of the United States Army.

    The Tuskegee Experiment was a "scientific study". About 400 African-American men with syphillis were intentionally left untreated from 1932-1972. "scientists" wanted to know the natural progression of the disease. These men were told they were being treated but that was a lie.
  • Question:-Were the Tuskegee Airmen allowed to eat in White restaurants when they came home from the war?
    Did they have to sit in the "Colored Section" of the movie theaters, drink from the "Colored" fountains, and sit on the back of the bus when they returned home from fighting for their(?) country?
    In case you didn't know, the Tuskegee Airmen were a group of Black Army Fighter Pilots that fought valiantly during WWII. They were indeed War heroes but the time was the 1940's and Jim Crow laws were in effect in the south. I was just curious if the war heroes were denied public access like the rest of the Blacks were then.

    Answer:-Sadly, no and don't just say the South b/c there was always tacit understanding that blacks could only go to certain places in other areas of the US...Be black and go into certain Denny's and the fact that this country had a restaurant chain called Sambo's until a few years ago says a lot about how they and other minorities are and were received in public venues.
  • Question:-To what extent did the movie, The Tuskegee Airmen, actually portray the factual and accurate events of the rea?
    To what extent did the movie, The Tuskegee Airmen, actually portray the factual and accurate events of the real Tuskegee Airmen?

    Answer:-Real events are created by real people. The Tuskegee Airmen were a group of men and it is difficult to break them into individuals. The fact that no enemy plane ever shot down a bomber that they escorted was true. The fact that they weren't recognized for their achievements is true. Several of them became Aces and still no recognition.
    the movie tried to make it sexier and along the way, the movie made the treatment of them palatable.
    Try saying thank you and I'm sorry all at once.
  • Question:-Did groups like the Tuskegee Airmen or the 442nd Regiment flight fight in the Korean or Vietnam War?
    Did groups like the Tuskegee Airmen or the 442nd Regiment flight fight in the Korean or Vietnam War? Why or why not? Thanks!

    Answer:-After executive order 9981 by president Truman, segregation in the US army was eliminated. that meant all regiments, squadrons, etc, could not reject any person on the basis of that persons race. So there were no more all black or all japanese forces in the US military, they were all mixed of various races now. Im not sure if both of those forces were gotten rid of and de commissioned or if they were reformed as they could no longer exist the way it was during World war 2 or it would contradict order 9981. So im sure NO they did not fight in korea or in Vietnam because they could no longer exist because of what it use to be.
  • Question:-What does the Tuskegee Airmen legacy means to many ?
    I need to know what is the impact of Tuskegee Airmen
    and how is they lengends. I just need anything that relates to them. Thankz please give me all the right answers cause I need it really bad.

    Answer:-http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuskegee_Airmen
  • Question:-Were the black pilots of WWII known as Tuskegee Airmen while they were serving in WWII?
    Thank you for your answer from wikepedia, in reference to my question of who named the Black Pilots of WWII Tuskegee Airmen. Although the information was complete, it did not indicate when or who named the black pilots Tuskegee Airmen.

    Answer:-The Tuskegee Airmen are named for the city of Tuskegee and Tuskegee University. But During the war they were know by there unit or group numbers. In Tuskegee they were the 66th Army Detachment when the first class graduated they became the 99th Pursuit Squadron. After awhile all of the figther squadrons that came out of Tuskegee joined together. This included the 99th, 100th, 101st, and the 301st, these units became known as the 332 Fighter Group (the Red Tailed Angels). The Bombers were know as the 477th bombardment Unit. In 1975 Airmen Charles Frances wrote his autobiography and it was named Tuskegee Airmen and that was the first time that title had been used! It brought all the living Airmen together from all units and groups. That same year they founded the Tuskegee Airmen Inc. which is the National Organization and Legislative partner for the Tuskegee Airmen National Historic Site in Tuskegee, Alabama. If you are near Tuskegee this is a great site to visit to learn more about the Tuskegee Airmen. Its done by the National Park Service. Thats where I work and I hope this helps!!!!
  • Question:-Is there a roster for the Tuskegee Airmen?
    I have done some googling and can't find an authoritative list of names. I am doing some research and wish to verify that a person who claims service with the Tuskegee Airmen actually served with that unit.

    Answer:-My son is a radio commentator and in 1978 he interviewed Tuskegee Airmen Ceicle Peterson on the air. I'll call my son and ask him how he got in touch with Ceicle and if he can get more information for you.

    But this link is a start,....

  • Question:-What started this sudden fascination with Betty White?
    Go to Hot Topic and you see shirts of her, she's on SNL, I even saw a Betty White calendar at a calendar store in the mall. Is it because she is the last surviving Golden Girl or what?

    Answer:-Betty White is a excellent actress and all around older woman that's been on many shows.

    :-)
  • Question:-who is the other old actor in the betty white snickers commercial?
    In the Snickers 2010 Superbowl commercial featuring Betty White and a second octogenarian actor. I'm wondering who the second actor is. This is an ongoing family debate. We need answers! Thank You!

  • Question:-What would be a reason for Betty White to talk to students?
    So for my speech class our final is to "introduce" a celebrity that is going to talk to a group of students. My only issue is that I can't think of a reason that Betty White would talk to a group of students. Any Ideas?

    Answer:-

    So for my speech class our final is to "introduce" a celebrity that is going to talk to a group of students. My only issue is that I can't think of a reason that Betty White would talk to a group of students. Any Ideas?

    Answer:-she is a great comedian, with roles on shows like
    The Mary Tyler Moore Show (Sue Ann Nivens)
    The G(lden Girls (Rose)
    Hot In Cleveland

    She was married to Alan Ludden (the host of Password)
    She also is a animal advocate. Students interested in this area might peak her interest.
  • Question:-What is the breed of dog in the 1-800PetRX commerical that Betty White has on her lap at the end?
    There is a small fluffy dog that gets on Betty White's lap at the end of the 1-800-petrx commercial, what is the breed of this dog?

    Answer:-If its the tan hairy one thats a pomeranian. Other wise, i know there is a golden retriever, but that wouldn't be on her lap... lol... But Yea, I do believe its a Pomeranian. Here's a link to a pic of one. http://www.kennels.co.uk/images/T.Pomeranian.jpg
  • Question:-What was more hyped: Obama winning the White House or Betty White hosting Saturday Night Live?
    I mean, she's a nice lady, but she's been on every talk show, and Game Show Network and one of the women's networks are running Betty White marathons all day.

    Answer:-She would be a better President.
  • Question:-What do you think of a new reality TV series with Betty White where a group of senior citizens pull pranks?
    NBC has bought a new hidden-camera reality series from host Betty White in which a bunch of senior citizens go around punking young people. “Betty White's Off Their Rockers” will follow “a band of seven senior citizens who make it their mission to play pranks on unsuspecting younger people."

    I'll bet Allen Funt is smiling from above. Will you watch it when it comes to TV?

    Answer:-I'll give it a try. I think it has the potential for being humorous because Betty is hilarious, but personally also think that if the situation was reversed (young pranking elders) would it still be acceptable to the viewing public? The premise will work better if the pranks are pulled on the general public, without singling out a particular age group.
  • Question:-What relatioship was Billy Barty's character Edgar Lindstrom to Betty White's character Rose Nylund?
    What was the relationship of Billy Barty's character Edgar Lindstrom to Betty White's character Rose Nylund nee Lindstrom on Golden Girls? I searched for an answer on the net and couldn't find anything. I will choose best answer.

    Answer:-I think he played her dad in a dream sequence of the show, where Rose was interested in her co-worker, Dr. Jonathan Newman, a little person who also worked at the grief center. The title was "A Little Romance,' season 1, episode 13.
  • Question:-Does anyone know what the trouble was between Betty White and Bea Arthur?
    Rumor has it that they just detested each other. Both women are/were fantastic actresses. Betty White is still turning in oscar worthy film work. Anyone know what the big riff was about?

    Answer:-rumors.
    Rumors have flown for years that Bea hates Betty, although both golden gals have dodged questions about a feud. Fans aren't fooled, and even point to Lifetime's recent Golden Girls reunion special, in which each of the ladies appeared but in separate studios, as proof that Bea and Betty are less than friends. More proof? While Arthur discusses every aspect of her career in her one-woman show, she doesn't once mention White. What her Web master said: "Who cares?" What Bea said (when asked about White): "Next question!"

    Whether or not this longstanding allegation about the two actresses is true, it has not killed the rumor mill, nor wavered hardcore Golden Girls' fan suspicions. Neither actress mentions the other in most of their interviews, and they almost never appear together on any GG reunion specials, or if they do, they are filmed in separate locations.

Nothing as glitzy as the ones Betty wears! Thanks for the Help

    Answer:-Try buying her Jogging suites on Amazon.
