The Tuskegee Airmen and Navajo Code Talkers deserve whatever attention and honor they receive. The World War II veterans are dying off at about 2000 a day and they all should be cherished, whether in groups or individually.

I would reasonably believe that’s more like two a month, if that many.

These fliers were valiant, fierce, brave and patriotic when their country needed them. Their record of service has been secured despite some party’s efforts to wipe them off the face of recorded history. We are fortunate that that didn’t happen. The descendants of many bomber crewmen saved by their actions would doubtless agree.
