This is why the story of the Tuskegee Airmen is so important; to allow future generations to not see the reality of racism, but how we as a people continued to triumph over it. I have had the honor to speak with Jerry Hodges, the president of the Tuskegee Airman Scholarship Foundation. I asked this 86-year-old youngster how close was the film to the real story. "It's not too far from being realistic," he replied. He was an original Tuskegee Airman--a Red Tail--who flew PT-17 and PT-13 planes and who learned to fly B-25 bombers at Tuskegee. . At that point they transferred Hodges to the Tuskegee Army Air Base and taught him how to fly the B-25. He was assigned to the 617th Bomber Squadron and the 477th Bomber Group. He proudly attended the Red Tail primier movie with three other Tuskegee Airman. He personally witnessed the triumphs that I speak of.
