one of my favorite movies of WWII planes and squadrons, what I really like about them is their battlefield march song:
"contact joystick back
sailing through the blue
brown men tried and true
We are heroes of the night
the Hell with Axis might
fight fight fight fight
fighting 99th

Rat Tat, Rat Tat Tat
down in flames they go
fighting men of the 99th
send them down below
for we are heores of the night
the Hell with Axis might
fight fight fight fight
fighting 99th..."
As a matter of fact, I just recently purchased a RC foam ultramicro p51 D and modified it to a p51B and named it "Inna the macon Belle" in the memory of the first African American Ace Lt Lee Archer 1 of the gruesom twosome fighters of the 332nd fighter group. Cant remember which class from Tuskegee but i'm sure he wasn't from the first 6 classes that formed the 99th fighter group commanded by Benjaming O. Davis Jr.
