@yellowbeen1 Back then it was "Separate but Equal"... Blacks were considered Cowards in face of danger, Had bad night vision and over all a bad soldier... Which proved to be the biggest bs ever... These men and women are heroes.
My late aunt Rose served with the 6888th. When I was a kid, she often shared the photos she took and the great stories, friends, and life lessons of their experiences during WWII.
It was tough trying to choke back the tears of joy and pride while watching this video of her unit finally get the credit that they have long deserved.
God Bless them. How come we never hear about this. Not only that Canadian women re-located to the US to work in munitions factories. Women in GB also served their country. I am so glad I saw this.
The women who have served in the Armed Forces do not get enough recognition for their service. Thanks for posting this video. I just learned about the 6888 earlier this year. This is the first video that I have seen about these women.
@novembertalespinner blacks & women NEVER get enough recognition for their service. how much mo' black women NEVER get enough recognition for their service. Never let yourself forget.
How do you keep a people down? You 'never' let them 'know' their history.
The 7th Cavalry got their butts in a sling again after the Little Big Horn Massacre, fourteen years later, the day after the Wounded Knee Massacre. If it wasn't for the 9th Cavalry Buffalo Soldiers, there would of been a second massacre of the 7th Cavalry. Read, and visit site/great history, rescue at pine ridge. com
