I wish they’d make a GOOD movie about them, not that POS with Fishburn and Cuba Gooding Jr.

I agree but in all fairness, that movie put them on the map. I had never heard of them until I saw that film. Like you say, NOW let's make a first class movie about these heroes.

What’s wrong with the Fishburne film?

One of the screenwriter/producers was Bob Williams, another Tuskeegee Airman who I had the honor to meet before his death.

Bob knew it was a composite but figured that was a good way to tell the story overall. It seems to have worked for the most part. What am I missing?
