37. The problem is very simple.

These men died not only for the U.S. but for the freedom of humanity and the end of fascism.

Yet, at that time, Black Americans were not accorded the same rights, advantages, or privileges as "whites".

Despite this many Blacks volunteered and they, both volunteers and draftees, fought bravely. All who were wounded or died deserve all of our respect.

They were not given special notice due to DEI, they were given special notice because of the segregation and discrimination they had endured, placed upon them by racists whites.

This needs to be noted and revealed due to the inequality they were given in their home country.
