APP Manassas Honors Tuskegee Airmen and Women Airforce Service Pilots
APP Jet Center Manassas is a proud sponsor of the RISE ABOVE Traveling Exhibit that arrived today at Manassas Regional Airport and will be open to the public for free through Sunday, August 27.
RISE ABOVE honors the Tuskegee Airmen and Women Airforce Service Pilots (WASP), both of whom served the U.S. in World War II. The Tuskegee Airmen were the first Black American military service pilots, and WASP were the first civilian women to fly military aircraft in noncombat missions.
