The Red Tails all black fighter squadron and the Red Ball express made up of mostly black truck drivers were also highly decorated and effective military units. Makes you wonder if perhaps segregated military units are more combat effective than desegregated ones.

Before you call it racist actually think it through for a minute. Esprit de Corps and teamwork are vital to military discipline and success. Segregated units inspire teamwork and competition to be better than the other guys. This makes everyone better.


Maybe they eat and sleep in their own barracks and drink out of "colored" water fountains separate from the "white's only" fountains. D you even know this was America in the 1960's?
