4.0 out of 5 stars
Not great but very good,
By Charles A. Krohn (Panama City Beach, Florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The American Foreign Legion: Black Soldiers of the 93d in World War I (Hardcover)
This is a lively account of the 93d Division during World War I--how they organized, trained, deployed and fought. Despite some discriminatory practices at home and abroad, the men of the 93d fought long, well and hard in some very unique situations while attached to the French army. They faced the spirit of their times without bitterness, and established a legacy that deserves to be remembered. They dealt with adversity by ignoring it, proving their mettle as soldiers and men. When it comes to offensive operations, they excelled brilliantly and usually without complaint. The reader will be aware that the soldiers were black; I doubt the soldiers cared one way or the other.
