CANTON − Jim Collver of Akron is sharing the story of the "Red Tail Squadron."
At the same time, he is paying respect to his 98-year-old father, John Collver, who enjoys a tie with those skilled Black fighter pilots more formally known as the Tuskegee Airmen.
A banner recognizing World War II contributions of 69 "brave young Black American patriots" who hailed from the Buckeye State will hang in Canton City Hall through Sept. 15.
