    • No Officers of Color?

      Me, loving the new officers in the game, while looking though the abilities; thought something was missing.
      It took a couple of weeks, but I finally realized what it was.

      Representation of the finest fixed wing command was not present. To think that prior to this command getting assigned,
      10 airmen's lives were lost, every time a U.S. bomber went down. The Tuskegee Airmen, who formed the 332nd Fighter Group,
      never lost a bomber that they escorted; to great sacrifice to their own lives.

      Another outstanding accomplishment by the 332nd, the take down of German jets (Me 262);
      in their P-51 Mustangs. The Tuskegee Airmen have 3 confirmed kills of the Me 262, towards the end of the war.

      However, I'm not surprised the Tuskegee Airmen aren't here. These Heros are never mentioned or taught.
    • Being well versed in WW2 lore I am indeed aware of the contribution to the war effort by african-american as well as native american soldiers.
      In fact we do have several skin colors and ethnicities in the game, depending on the doctrine.
      In the Western Forces I believe the infantry commander and the tank commander are non-caucasian....
      I also know one of the Eastern is clearly Asian.
