Black Warriors In Korea 1950/1951 eBook Curtis J Morrow
Predictable story of accomplishment in the vein of Glory, the Tuskegee Airmen and other minority military reports. This is an individual as opposed to a group and I think it was honest enough in most respects so a salute to Curtis. I have read other books about blacks in the military, particularly on the American frontier. There are conflicts, of course, about the record of black units and individuals but over all they seem to have overcome any stigma of color and performed at least as well as non blacks under other hardships and handicaps. I entered the Amy in 1957 and was sent to the south for training and duty for the first year. I had never been exposed to racism on the level encountered there so this book with the attitude of the time was on track. I often did not like what I saw, like the segregated water fountains and toilets. Older black NCOs, to their everlasting credit, were mentors and are well remembered. I did my second year in Korea followed by a second tour nearly 7 years later. When I see a movie or read a book about black individuals I always ask myself why did they have to keep proving to be worthy with each war.Product details

Black Warriors In Korea 1950/1951 eBook Curtis J Morrow Reviews
Every once in a while you come across a life story that haunts you! Black Warriors does that for me!
Mr Morrow thinks through the reality of his mortality every step of the way! Can't help but feel the irony as he returned to the U.S. Only to be treated as a half citizen! Praise and gratefulness to Mr Morrow for sharing his life ---a memoir so wise, truth ridden and marvelously Telling!
Curtis, gives a stark and vivid account of the many struggles and challenges both he and those first black soldiers with him went through just to able to offer their lives in support of our wonderful country. Truly there is no way we can adequately thank them for their enormus sacrefices for us all.
Great job, Mr. Morrow, telling a story that must have been difficult to tell, but one we needed to hear.
one of the most honest accounts of combat ever done.

Very interesting and informative read.
I love Mr. Morrow's true account of what it was like in an all-Black combat unit in a foreign country fighting for a country that still denied him and others in his unit basic freedoms simply because they were Black! I always enjoy learning about the Buffalo Soldiers, including its last unit. Keep up the great work, Mr. Morrow!!
