Default Re: Two black units during World War II

Every year I go to Ft Huachuca for an Army Intellegence Trade Show. It's a bout 7 miles from Tombstone and about 5 miles from the Mexican line. Checkpoints all up and down those back roads and ya see a lot of US Customs Agents.

It is also home of the original Buffalo Soldiers and has a great historical museum and US Cemetery. In 2006 attended a prosession and stood guard with the Patriot Riders at the cemetery enterence. There was a rumor the Topeka wacko's were going to protest at this brave soldiers funeral. I stood with white, black, brown, and native men and women to protect this soldiers family and dignity. It was a good time to be an American !
