The Tuskegee Airmen Memorial at Sewickley Cemetery in Pennsylvania is the largest outdoor memorial in the United States dedicated to honoring the legacy of the Tuskegee Airmen. These brave African-American military aviators were the first of their kind in the U.S. armed forces, overcoming racial prejudice to help defeat the Nazis during World War II. The memorial, dedicated in 2013, pays tribute to nearly 100 Tuskegee Airmen from Western Pennsylvania, including eight from Sewickley. Located on land donated by Sewickley Cemetery, the memorial features four large monuments, two of which are engraved with the names of the Western Pennsylvania Airmen. A central tower topped with a sculpture of an airplane tail made from red granite symbolizes the unit's nickname, the "Red Tails."
