About this item
Despite profound obstacles, insurmountable odds and constant discrimination, African American soldiers served their country with honor & distinction. This video proudly salutes the men & women of the U.S. Armed Forces.
AFRICAN AMERICANS IN WW II - A LEGACY OF PATRIOTISM & VALOR On January 13, 1997, seven African American soldiers were awarded the Medal of Honor for actions performed during WW II. These seven honored soldiers have come to symbolize the remarkable contributions of all African Americans who served our country, in all our wars.

Some of their stories include: Tuskegee Airmen; Women at War; Red Ball Express; 92nd ( Buffalo Soldiers ) Infantry Division; 761st ( Black Panthers ) Tank Battalion; the Triple Nickels; 6888th Postal Unit Battalion & much more!
