Description
Background
The
Tuskegee Airmen National Historic Site in Alabama commemorates the
heroic actions and achievements of the famous Tuskegee Airmen. The term
“Tuskegee Airmen” pertains to both men and women of diverse
nationalities. They were composed of nearly 1,000 pilots and more than
15,000 support staff (including navigators, bombardiers, and mechanics).
The site preserves five historic structures used during primary flight
training in World War II.

Characteristics
The reverse (tails) design depicts a Tuskegee Airman pilot suiting up to
join the fight during World War II with the Moton Field control tower
in the background. The pilot looks upward with pride and confidence as
two P-51 Mustangs pass overhead. The inscription “THEY FOUGHT TWO WARS”
is arced across the top as a reference to the dual battles the Tuskegee
Airmen fought–fascism abroad and racial discrimination at home.
