Got it. Stick with Black Panthers. I was just alluding to their exploits and how they might compare to the Tuskegee Airmen. Flying has always been the more "glamorous" job, but you don't win wars with planes alone.

Cheers!

Yep, the zoomies get the glamour jobs. Of course, during WWII it was downright dangerous to be a pilot with the casualty rates they sustained.

I really liked the HBO movie "The Tuskegee Airmen" and rented it one Memorial Day. By the end of the movie the kids were in tears because so many of the pilots that started out with the unit were dead by the end of the war.
