Here is how deluded IM2 is.
He said this.
"The picture used in my avatar is of an American hero, Airman Captain John Daniels. Airman Captain Daniels was a member of the legendary Tuskegee Airmen. After serving his country with great honor, Daniels, along with close to a dozen other high-ranking officers died in a plane crash while attempting to return to Moten field in Tuskegee AFTER the war had ended. There was a severe thunderstorm in the area that covered the airport and their requests to divert to an alternative airport to avoid the thunderstorm were denied because Moten Field was the only place in the segregated South where they, as African Americans, were allowed to be."
They were only a legend to black racists.
His hero FDR did not allow them any role in fighting until the very end of WW2 and he confined them to the poor war planes at first.
In 1941, the United States was thrust into a global war that required massive military and industrial mobilization to win. Volunteering in record numbers, more than 1.2 million African American men and women served in all branches of the still-segregated Armed Forces during World War II, and even more on the Home Front took advantage of new labor opportunities in defense and other crucial industries. Special and one-of-a-kind artifacts from the Museum’s collection highlight these expanded roles filled by Africans Americans during the war.
Black WWII veterans fueled the growing Civil Rights Movement in America, paving the way for broader social change, expanded opportunities, and increased political empowerment. The exhibit traces these efforts and achievements, including the desegregation of the Armed Forces in 1948, the passage of the 1965 Voting Rights Act, and the long-overdue awarding of the Medal of Honor to seven Black WWII veterans in 1997.
The legacy of African American experiences during World War II continues to resonate through American society in profound ways. As the struggle for justice and equality continues, Fighting for the Right to Fight showcases extraordinary stories of service, sacrifice, and fortitude that paved the way for change.
