African-American and military history lovers can view some of the history of the Tuskegee Airmen at an exhibit on display at the Gwinnett Veterans Memorial Museum in Lawrenceville.

The exhibit, which runs through April, includes artifacts, documents and personal memorabilia from the pioneering African-American pilots who were members of the U.S. Army Air Corps during World War II. They were the first black pilots in the U.S. military.

The free exhibit is open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. weekdays.

The Gwinnett Veterans Memorial Museum is at 185 Crogan St., Room 118, in the Old Gwinnett Courthouse in Lawrenceville. For more information or to schedule a tour, call 770-985-0901 or visit www.vetmemorialmuseum.tripod.com.
