Brig. Gen. Brook Leonard, 56th Fighter Wing Commander, interacts with members of the Archer-Ragsdale Chapter of Tuskegee Airmen March 23, 2017, at Luke Air Force Base, Ariz. Luke’s relationship with the Tuskegee Airmen stems through the 302nd Fighter Squadron which was one of four African-American fighter squadrons to enter combat during World War II. The 302nd FS was attached to the 944th Fighter Wing Reserve Component which calls Luke home today.
