planned
The ex-fighter pilot plans now
to continue his schooling toward
medical doctors degree. He was
discharged when his outfit, the
3S2d all-Negro fighter wing at
Lockbourne.O.. was broken up in
September. 1919. He has just re-
turned to Portland. One of his first
acts was to apply for assignment
to either the Oregon air national
guard or to the air force reserve
at Portland air force base.
Flying is still in his blood.
The aa2d all-Negro fighter OUT
fit was the first and only such
squadron, later a wing, in World
War II. Equipped at first with old
P-40 fighters they won official re-
cognition for good work in Italy
and elsewhere.
Later some of them were check
ed out in bombers- When the 33zd
was disbanded they were scattered
among othsr outfits in the air
force without regard to color
They have been accepted without
discrimination by fellow pilots,
Campbell reports.
