President George W. Bush speaks during the Congressional Gold Medal ceremony for the Tuskegee Airmen Thursday, March 29, 2007, at the U.S. Capitol. Said the President, “The Tuskegee Airmen helped win a war, and you helped change our nation for the better. Yours is the story of the human spirit, and it ends like all great stories do – with wisdom and lessons and hope for tomorrow.” White House photo by Eric Draper Download Full Size Photo |
These photos were part of an airport exhibit in 2008 to commemorate Black History Month. The Tuskegee Airmen destroyed 261 military planes, 950 railcars and sunk one destroyer during World War II while also encountering racism and segregation on the home front.
