Explain in your own words the importance of the efforts of the tuskegee airmen on the outcome of the war, and why their contribution is noted today.

They were important because of their successes in the war effort, as well as because they were the first African-American aviator troop in the military. They are still noted because they fought for a country that still segregated and had Jim Crow laws and often was openly racist about them, and yet they still fought in the war because of their ideals.
