About This Design

African American Aviators Fighter Pilots of WW2  Postcard

African American Aviators Fighter Pilots of WW2 Postcard

The 332nd Fighter Group, including the 99th Fighter Squadron, played a pivotal role in Operation Husky, the Allied invasion of Sicily in July 1943. This group, primarily composed of African American pilots, faced significant challenges due to racial segregation and discrimination. Despite these obstacles, they proved their exceptional skills and bravery in combat. - The 99th Fighter Squadron, flying P-40 Warhawk fighters, provided critical air support during the invasion. They successfully escorted bombers, conducted strafing runs, and engaged enemy aircraft. Their contributions were invaluable to the success of the operation. - The achievements of these African American pilots were groundbreaking. They shattered racial stereotypes, demonstrated their capabilities as skilled aviators, and paved the way for the integration of the U.S. military. Their legacy continues to inspire and empower future generations of Black Americans to pursue careers in the military and other fields. - The success of the 332nd Fighter Group and the 99th Fighter Squadron had a profound impact on the experiences of Black Americans in the military. It challenged the prevailing notion that African Americans were not capable of serving in combat roles. Their accomplishments opened doors for future generations of Black Americans to serve in various roles within the military, including combat positions. - WPA image in Public Domain.

I joined Postcrossing a few months ago and wanted postcards to represent my state well. I found them on Zazzle. I purchased numerous cards and was impressed with all of them. Excellent! The colors are beautiful. The cards have the exact look I wanted. I couldn't be happier.
