Valentine's Day Massacre
On february ,14, 1929 five mobsters of north side irish gang and two people because of gunfire. got killed by the south side italian gang. in total seven people died because of the incedent. the conflict was between the north and the south and they hate each other. The incident was bad because it scared the people because crime cannot be tamed as well as people thought. this happen in a garage in Chicago. a person in the building scented something was wrong and went down and was frightened as what has happend. on of the victims was still alive and got rushed to the hospital but later died. the Italian members dressed as cops fooling the residence around. They have suspects but no people got detained and it is hard to find out the murders in a gang because they all keep their mouths shut or else they will get killed.

Tuskegee Airmen
The Tuskegee airmen were a popular African American pilot group in WWII.
Because they were the first African American group of pilots to help flight in
air to air combat. At first they trained in cheep planes and bi planes as they
got more successful the United States government up graded them to p51 mustangs
and they painted them with red tails. This is how they got their name as 'Red
Tails'. In 1917 the group of men asked to be surveyors but not in combat, they
got rejected. Then they tried to make a test to see if the men were mentally
fit for the job even that it was super easy. Later on they were able to take
down grounded objects such as tanks, trucks and trains. The pilots were less
fortunate in what they got as in planes they the other white pilots. The
Tuskegee pilots still wanted to fight in the war though. One day they had an
opportunity to prove them selves and they took it and succeeded. The
budding flight program at Tuskegee received a publicity boost when First
Lady Eleanor Roosevelt inspected it in March 1941, and flew with
African-American chief civilian instructor C. Alfred "Chief"
Anderson. She was impressed and their name started getting bigger and they
received more support. Soon enough they received p51’s and panted them with red
tails and red tails became their name. They got to fight in air to air combat
and became very successful. In 2012 a movie came out about them named “Red
Tails” . The spread of the tuskee airmen proved that blacks could fight in the war and people started to realize that they were also needed.
