My idly wandering thoughts have led me to this question:
Tuskegee Airmen.
Is it pronounced with the ‘g’ as in Gin, or as in Good?

And why can’t A L find out about ” JANIE “?

Tuss – Kee – Gee. Definately.
Now why is Y pronounced why and not yie (as in pie)?
And why is Y in French eeGreck?
Mondaeegreck, Tuesdaeegreck etc
