    Freeman Field Mutiny

    At Freeman Field in Indiana, Black officers of the 477th resisted discriminatory rules governing access to officers' facilities. The confrontation, commonly called the Freeman Field Mutiny, exposed racial discrimination within the wartime Army Air Forces and became an important event in the history of African-American military service and desegregation.
