Tuskegee Airmen: My personal tribute!
Saletta . 620,500 Insider Points	In light of NASA’s recent tribute this month in honor of the Tuskegee Airmen, I wanted to pay a personal tribute to my uncle, Lowell Cleaver, one of the Tuskegee airmen who served as a pilot in WW2! During his tenure, he would garner many accolades including Top Cadet in Aerobatics and Aerial Gunnery. Here’s his fascinating story through his daughter’s eyes: https://mylifestory283.wordpress.com/2015/10/01/my-dads-amazing-story-he-was-one-of-the-tuskegee-airmen/ https://calisphere.org/item/ark:/86086/n2p84cnh/ https://twitter.com/PVAMU/status/960649344629313538 NASA’s Tribute: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fFIRHNdUmw I had the honor of singing at his homegoing service in 1989.
