San Antonio – The US Air Force will resume teaching about the country’s first black pilots and women’s pilots of World War II.
The Air Force had stopped that part of its basic training course last week until its diversity, equality and inclusion policies were reviewed.

Tuskegi Airman was the first black fighter pilot in the country to fought different units during World War II, paving the way for the separation of the American armed forces in 1948.

In a statement, Lieutenant General Brian Robinson said that a group of trainees had missed this part of the course due to review, but no trainee would miss this section of instructions.
