Quoting Robert Taylor <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > No black soldiers in Saving Private Ryan either, which is quite shocking
It is accurate, as far as I know. American combat units had not yet been integrated. Black troops were mostly used in the motor pool and engineering divisions, as well as by the military police. It wasn't until the Korean war that you had black soldiers in the same front-line units as whites.
