It's ironic that Curtis LeMay enthusiastically supported the desegregation of the military (so I've read), and then later ended up as George Wallace's running-mate. That was a strange ticket - LeMay didn't "hate the N******" and Wallace didn't want to blow up the world. And as he showed in later years, Wallace didn't really have his heart in the segregation thing - it was purely politics.
