Air Force scraps course that used videos of Tuskegee Airmen and female WWII pilots

[Superbadbrutha]

The Air Force has removed training courses with videos of its storied Tuskegee Airmen and the Women Airforce Service Pilots, or WASPs — the female World War II pilots who were vital in ferrying warplanes for the military — to comply with the Trump administration's crackdown on diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives.

LOL It was a DEI course...


"The problem may not be with the historical videos themselves, but that they were used in Air Force basic military training DEI coursework."

Do you read anything other than the headline?

Perhaps such courses aren't needed anymore.

Those films still have their prideful place in history and Even in the Airforce schooling programs I would think, but....need they take up needful time during training periods?
It might be an over reaction to remove them altogether, and actually I think historically they are important but how much do they have to do with tactical training?

When forming cohesive fighting units, unity is also very important. If training courses leave some people feeling divided, it not might be the best idea. I'd like to hear someones input if they were a person who actually went through that training.

He can't, he's superdumbnegro.

I knew the Trump Humpers would come with their weakass excuses, where are fools like Struth at?

Airplane mechanic, the only thing you can do to an airplane is empty the shitter.

The mission of the Air Force like other military forces is to "provide for the common defense" in a modern world. A/F history might be interesting but training is what get's the job done

No I can't. I tried and the ******* hose fell off coating me in crap and old toilet paper. That was the one day I wondered WTF I was doing out here in this nasty shit.

Oh yea, it happened in the pouring down rain 10 years before I became a licensed mechanic.

So I guess we don't need to teach the Army and Navy about the Revolutionary War.

So teaching only about the white units who fought in the past will create the necessary unit cohesiveness and togetherness?

Nope. Not what I am meaning at all. They really should be just teaching tactical things during training. Now if the Tuskeegee airmen have something of tactical value when it comes to todays airforce, then I'm all for it. The color of the person wearing the uniform shouldnt even come up in training, we are all under one flag.. if you can respect it.

Mind you. I think it would be great for the Airforce to still give some historical perspective to recruits in class study about the Tuskeegee Airmen and female pilots, but in training I'm not so sure its a difference maker.

Its why I also said I'd like to hear from someone who went through those programs because I'm not sure of the context and how aplicable all that is to a pilots training. All I think is that the training should be focused on what will make those pilots successful and stay alive.

It says in the ******* article it was part of the DEI coursework at bootcamp. You're as illiterate as the OP.

Knowing the history of the Air Force is part of the training.

History is part of that coursework dumb ass. WTF do you think DEI training is?

Didn't realize you needed a license to empty the shitter.
