Title: Zapomniani amerykańscy żołnierze: Afroamerykanie w Great War

Abstract:

The purpose of this article – making part of a cycle on forgotten American soldiers in the Great War – is to recall the participation of black Americans in the US war effort. Despite the racial tensions of the time, African Americans volunteered en masse to join the military in serving their country. As a result of racial segregation, two divisions of colour soldiers were established to take part in fights on the Western Front, and nearly 160,000 black recruits were sent to the Service of Supply (SOS) of the Army.
