The Tuskegee Airmen — United States
The 1995 HBO film follows Black pilots of the 332nd Fighter Group from their segregated training at Tuskegee to their combat record escorting bombers over Europe — fighting fascism while facing racism at home.
The Tuskegee Airmen trained at Moton Field and Tuskegee Army Air Field in a segregated programme the War Department had not expected to succeed. The 332nd Fighter Group flew 15,000 sorties, received three Distinguished Unit Citations and lost only 27 bombers under escort. They flew red-tailed P-51 Mustangs and were specifically requested by name by bomber crews.
