BigGrin Hi Mr T
should be a good film if it sticks to the facts, the red tails were the 1st all negro american squadron that was formed during the 2nd ww.Facing the predudices and great opposition of the period in question,basicly negro,s were only good as cooks or grave diggers [the same oposition was also found in the us navy untill a negro cook downed a zero in the pearl harbour attack]these boys were all the top of there classes and top pilots.The B17 crews were happyest when the red tails escorted them across europe as they knew they would do there job and not go flying off after kills like some other escort squadrons were prone to do.
regards

It's a remake of an earlier 1995 film "The Tuskegee Airmen". I believe the characters are different.
