Retired Tuskegee airman wants birthday cards to celebrate turning 100
Excerpt:
Retired Sgt. Victor Butler, who was a mechanic for the Tuskegee Airmen, is asking for cards to mark a special birthday.
Butler now lives in Rhode Island and is turning 100 years old later this month on May 21. He is believed to be one of the last surviving Tuskegee airman, part of a group of black military pilots who made history in World War II as they broke segregation barriers, after fellow Tuskegee Airman Charles McGee died in February at the age of 102.
Birthday cards and wishes can be mailed to Victor W. Butler, in the care of Gary Butler at P.O. Box 3523, Cranston, Rhode Island, 02910.
