NCA celebrates the life and legacy of Tuskegee Airman, Alexander Jefferson, 100, who was laid to rest at Great Lakes National Cemetery on September 1. As one of the Tuskegee Airmen in the 332nd Fighter Group, he served in the United States Army Air Forces during World War II.

Jefferson was a POW during the war.

In 1995, Jefferson was enshrined in the Michigan Aviation Hall of Fame. In 2004, President George W. Bush awarded Jefferson a Purple Heart for being wounded while being shot down over German-occupied France. On March 29, 2007, Jefferson attended a ceremony in the U.S. Capitol rotunda, where he and all the other members of the Tuskegee Airmen (and their widows) were collectively awarded the Congressional Gold Medal in recognition of their service.

Detroit, Michigan honored Jefferson for his service during WWII, with a metaphorical "key to the city" In 2021.

Jefferson served as an instrument instructor at Tuskegee Army airfield, until it closed in 1946. He remained in the US Air Force reserve, finally retiring in 1969. In 1947 Jefferson received his teaching certificate from Wayne State University, and began teaching elementary school science for the Detroit Public School System. He received his M.A. degree in education in 1954, and was appointed assistant principal in 1969. He retired in 1979 as an assistant principal, after over 30 years service.

He celebrated his 100th birthday in 2021.
