The Tuskegee Airmen were formed in 1941 in Tuskegee, Alabama. They would serve as the first black members of Americaâs Air Force.Among those enlisted one year later were Retired Air Force Chief Master Sgt. Richard R. Hall, Jr. and Retired Lieutenant Colonel Bob Hughes â a white man.his group was the 99th Pursuit Squadron and the 332nd Fighter Group. Black college students took notice of the Tuskegee Airmen training program, which graduated 932 pilots. But only 355 would deploy into actual duty as Tuskegee Airmen fighter pilots.
The Tuskegee study, which began in the early 1930s, consisted of 399 African-American men with syphilis and 201 without, according to the CDC. The Tuskegee Institute partnered with the Public Health Service for an experiment that was supposed to last 6 months. Instead it lasted about 40 years. While the Tuskegee study was still going in the 1940s, other efforts that would never meet today's medical ethics standards were going on elsewhere.
