I have to assume that by "commi persecution years" you are refering to the short era known as McCarthyism. This is a favorite subject for many to point out sweeping and out of control government action that is not targeted at a few individuals.
Fortunately we have had several of our Moslem friends on this board point out that this is not the case and they continue their flying duties here in the US, so the idea that this is a sweeping out of control program is unfounded.
