About the Red Tail P-51C
During the war, the Tuskegee Airmen painted their airplanes with nose art and nicknames. To honor all of the Tuskegee Airmen, the decision was made by the CAF to incorporate a color scheme that honored the four fighter squadrons of the segregated 332nd Fighter Group:
The CAF Red Tail Squadron’s rare P-51C Mustang represents all of the personnel that are now known as Tuskegee Airmen: pilots, bombardiers, navigators, ground crews, mechanics, cooks, ambulance drivers, medical staff, administrative personnel, etc.
The Squadron’s Mustang also has the phrase “By Request” on it just under the side windows. That was the name of the airplane of famed pilot and leader of the 332nd, Col. Benjamin O. Davis, Jr. He named his airplane that to make the point that white pilots would request the Tuskegee-trained pilots to escort them on bombing missions due to their skill and courage in protecting the bombers.
The colors represent the four fighter squadrons in the 332nd Group:
