Summary

Description U.S. Air Force (USAF) photo of a young Major McGee receiving the Distinguished Flying Cross in Korea in 1951 is on display during the U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Office of the Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights (OASCR) event, “In conversation With Tuskegee Airmen,” held at USDA in Washington, D.C. on Thursday Mar. 27, 2014. Retired USAF Colonel Charles Edward McGee, Tuskegee Airmen Incorporated (TAI) National Historian William F. Holton and USAF Historical Research Agency Organizational Histories Branch Chief Daniel L Haulman were guest speakers at this event. Mr. Haulman presented the history of the first black military flying unit, then Col. McGee spoke about his Army Air Corp (later Army Air Force and Air Force) experiences starting in the 1940’s as did Mr. Holton with his perspective from the U.S. Navy. Questions from the audience provided several opportunities to open the discussion about civil rights challenges and how they achieved success and respect. USDA Photo by Lance Cheung.
