Tuskegee Airmen Come to Atlanta Youth Academy


On Tuesday, March 9, Atlanta Youth Academy was extremely honored to host a group of the surviving Tuskegee Airmen, the first African American military aviators, who bravely defended our country in World War II.


Students, faculty, friends as well as students from various other schools gathered to hear these brave pioneers talk about their experiences in the war, from training to fighting and life afterward. The men took a number of questions from the excited audience.


AYA was proud to have an opportunity to celebrate these living heroes!
