BROWN JR., 85, stood drill-baton straight addressing the audience after the first performance of “Fly,” a new play about the all-black Army Air Corps fighter squadron known as the Tuskegee Airmen. One of a few hundred remaining members of that World War II unit, he held up the Congressional Gold Medal that it had taken the government until last March to award to the squadron."
