The Tuskegee Airmen were African-American Pilots & Ground Crew who served with distinction in the 332nd Fighter Group & 477th BG in WWII. Our Tuskegee Airmen T-Shirt is inspired by their WWII-era Squadron Patch and features their Iconic Motto: 'Spit Fire'. Crafted with a Classic Navy Premium Tee made of 100% Ring-Spun Cotton, it's Soft & Comfortable, with double stitching on the neckline & sleeves to add extra durability. The Left Sleeve features a WWII Era USAAC Roundel.
The 332nd Fighter Group was formed in 1941 at Tuskegee Army Air Field, Alabama. It was made up of exclusively African-Americans at a time when the US Military was segregated, and Black Americans were subject to widespread discrimination in the Armed Forces.
The 332nd would overcome countless obstacles to become one of the most admired and formidable Fighter Squadrons of WWII, breaking down barriers and smashing stereotypes in the process. They became known by their fellow fliers as the 'Red Tails', due to the distinctive Red Tails of their P-51 Mustangs. The Unit was disbanded in 1948 when segregation in the military was finally ended by President Truman.
