Here we go folks, more of the usual right wing, racist bullshit.
Actually, the vast majority of racism in America is Liberal racism. Remember it was liberal Icon FDR who fielded a Jim Crow Military during WWII. If it were up to me, the units would have been integrated.
They were integrated by another Democrat.
After the war was over, and most of the Greatest Generation were already back home. The ideal time to integrate the military was in 1941 and 1942 when millions of men were being drafted.
My old man fought WWII, and he just had to take people's word for it that there were black guys in the Army. He didn't see any.
hehheh Da negroes were way behind the front lines...it was kinda like a vacation for them...plenty of food, a cozy bed loose shoes and a warm place to shit.....not to mention access to white women who for a pair of nylons, a pack of lucky strikes or a couple of hershey bars would get very friendly

The few number of African Americans that got killed meant that the average black GI was probably less likely to be killed than if he had stayed in the ghetto during the war. 700 deaths in 3 1/2 years of WW2 action, that's just 200 a year. Walking the streets of Bed Stuy or Watts was a lot riskier, and a lot greater chance of death.
More likely to be lynched in the south
