Thank you. You say it well. I just re-read the article to see if I indicated he faced discrimination in the military. Most of his assignments in the military were because he was so good as a flight instructor. Thank you for posting, as I back exactly what you have said about this circumstance. Experiences like college were easier and if your family has some money, but Fernandez was also living at a time when those elements would not necessarily been part of his life&#039;s path.
All best,
Kate]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[He was a great pilot. If it was racial, he never would have been an Air force pilot. If he went back to college, he would have made it to Col. or even General. One of the most decorated USAF pilots was a Hispanic from P.R. and a General. I&#039;m not seeing racial discrimination.]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[I read somewhere that he experienced some racial discrimination because of his Hispanic heritage. Knowing how things were for minorities back then it doesn&#039;t surprise me that he was held back. It is clear he was a superior pilot and that a college education back then was not needed to be an outstanding pilot.]]></description>
