Red Tail Event June 6

In honor of the Tuskegee Airmen, this event sponsored by the Red Tail Project, might be something you want to consider.

In St. Paul, Minn., at the Minnesota History Center, June 6, 6 p.m. to 9. In addition to meeting some of the surviving Tuskegee Airmen and a dinner, the event includes a private screening of a new PBS documentary, "Red Tail Reborn." For those who don't know, the Red Tail reference stems from the bright scarlet paint the Tuskegee Airmen had painted on the vertical stab and rudder of their P-51 Munstangs.

The Red Tail Project is involved in restoring a very rare P-51C of the type the Tuskegee Airmen flew from bases in North Africa and Italy.

Check out the details at www.redtail.org. And if you can't make the dinner, hope you can find another way to support the restoration project.
