Moton Field - Home of the Tuskegee Airmen

First, if you have not seen the movie The Tuskegee Airmen (1995) with Lawrence Fishburn, Cuba Gooding Jr., and many other great actors, rent it!!! You will learn a lot about what we saw this morning - well, at least the Hollywood version. We watched the movie as our bus took us from Atlanta to Tuskegee and so our arrival at Moton Field just after it ended was pretty amazing. The field was home to an "experiment" to train the first non-white Army pilots for the U.S. Army. Many did not want to see them succeed, but the Tuskegee Airmen were some of the most decorated pilots of WWII.
