Negro Pilots

Can anyone tell me the name of the film about an American Negro squadron.
Only saw the film once on TV a long time ago.

From what I remember the Negro squadron are at first not wanted by, at least one bomber crew, then after seeing how good they are that bomber crew request the negro squadron to escort them in future.

"You were given the choice between war and dishonor.
You chose dishonor and you will have war."

(Winston Churchill made this prophetic pronouncement in a House of Commons speech in 1938, just after Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain signed the Munich agreement with Hitler. Chamberlain returned from Germany with the signed agreement in hand, proclaiming that "peace in our time" had been achieved. Churchill attacked Chamberlain's "politics of appeasement" in this and many other speeches.)
