This we continue our "... and the truth shall make you free" series by further exploring WWII, the Tuskegee Airmen and the City of Tuskegee, Alabama, in general.
In keeping with our goal of presenting "living history," this week's special guest will be our very own Ms. Stephanie Reeder. No, Ms. Reeder was not an airmen, however, she is the niece of the late Mr. William Harvey White who trained as a Tuskegee Airmen. Although Mr. White opted out of combat for reasons that will be disclosed, he was trained by notables that include Mr. Perry H. Young. Mr. White's oral accounts reiterated by Ms. Reeder displays some of the hurdles met by our heroes. The road was and is long but like our heroes of yesteryear, we have what it takes to meet and exceed these challenges presented.
This is Bones X, signing off; Check-Mate.
