Henry Cabot Lodge Bohler

Henry Cabot Lodge Bohler (June 8, 1925 – August 10, 2007) was a member of the prestigious Tuskegee Airmen during World War II who would later aid the advancement of civil rights for African-Americans living in the rural Southern United States.
==Early life==
Born in Augusta, Georgia in 1925, Bohler would spend much of his life being told what he couldn't do. He dreamed of flying one day, but was told he couldn't become a pilot because he was black. Instead of accepting that decision, he enlisted in the Army Air Forces at the age of 17.〔http://www.ajc.com/news/content/metro/obits/stories/2007/08/15/bohler_0815.html〕 At enlistment, he weighed 109 pounds, which was one pound under the minimum weight for airmen; through persuasion, he was able to join anyway.
Bohler would train at the Tuskegee Army Air Field in Alabama, the home base of the Tuskegee Airmen, the first African-American air corps in the United States. He learned to fly the P-51 Mustang fighter, and earned his wings in 1944. At that point, the air forces did not need any more pilots. Bohler would nonetheless remain with the air forces until 1947, earning the rank of second lieutenant. He then attended and graduated from Hampton University in Hampton, Virginia.
Returning to Augusta, he met and married his wife, the future Clifford Marie Bohler, at an ice cream shop her aunt owned. "He came in, and the rest is history," Mrs. Bohler would later recount. She would add how persistent he was, and that "he wouldn't take no for an answer."〔(Tuskegee Airman Demanded Equality )〕
