Question

select two responses that describe the accomplishments of the tuskegee airmen.
a they received honors and awards both in america and abroad.
b they taught new flying techniques to the next generation of pilots.
c they were highly regarded for their protection of bombers.
d they were credited with desegregating the military.

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Option A: The Tuskegee Airmen received many honors and awards in the US and internationally for their service. This is correct.
• Option B: There's no major historical evidence that their primary accomplishment was teaching new flying techniques to the next generation. So this is incorrect.
• Option C: They were known for their excellent protection of bombers during missions, with a low loss rate of bombers under their escort. This is correct.
• Option D: While their service helped in the broader fight for civil rights, they weren't credited with desegregating the military (President Truman's executive order did that, though their service contributed to the push). So this is incorrect.

So the correct options are A and C.

Answer:

A. They received honors and awards both in America and abroad.
C. They were highly regarded for their protection of bombers.
