HONORING THE NATION'S FIRST AFRICAN AMERICAN MILITARY AVIATORS IN A NON-TRADITIONAL WAY “Red Tails” was the nickname given to the 332nd Fighter Group of World War II. It was done so because the tails of their P-47 Thunderbolt fighter planes (June 1944) and then, their P-51 Mustang fighter planes (July 1944) were painted RED for aerial identification by the bomber groups that were being escorted by the 15th Air Force. Our mobile Tuskegee Airmen based educational resource is a customized 2011 Ford Mustang, wrapped to emulate the "Red Tailed" P-51 Mustang fighter plane flown by the 332nd Fighter Group. On it, we honor two (2) Detroit Chapter Tuskegee Airmen Inc's Documented Original Tuskegee Airmen (DOTA); retired LtCol's Harry T Stewart, Jr and Alexander Jefferson
