Tuskegee Airman posthumously honored after decades MIA
February 26, 2019
Marla L. Andrews (right), daughter of U.S. Army Air Forces Capt. Lawrence E. Dickson, receives her father’s medals from Brig. Gen. Twanda E. Young, deputy commanding general of the U.S. Army’s Human Resources Command, during a Feb. 24 ceremony held at Fountain Baptist Church in Summit, New Jersey. Dickson was a Tuskegee Airman declared missing in action after his plane crashed in Europe in December 1944. Dickson’s remains were identified in November 2018 using the latest DNA tests, making him the first to be identified out of more than two-dozen Tuskegee Airmen declared MIA during World War II.
