| Additional information |
The Tuskegee Airmen quarter was issued as part of the America the Beautiful series, which ran from 2010 through 2021 — this piece is among the final releases before the program concluded. The Tuskegee Airmen National Historic Site in Alabama preserves Moton Field, where the 99th Pursuit Squadron and later the 332nd Fighter Group trained under the Army Air Corps' experimental program, launched partly to test whether Black pilots could handle combat aviation. The Army already knew the answer; the program existed largely to generate evidence that segregationists could not easily dismiss.
