Who were the Harlem Hell-fighters, also known as the Black Rattlers and Men of Bronze?

They are unsung heroes, left a great legacy

Thank you. Was not aware of them.

Amazing . Never heard of them before . Should make a movie

There are so many stories of unsung heroes from all backgrounds. But if you go down the rabbit hole of truth you will find minorities have always served their country. Even though their country turns it's back when they no longer fit the narrative and say they've always been problematic. Blacks, Indians, Muslims, Hispanic. All face the same scrutiny while loving living and dying for their country.

Many stories have been left out of our history books. That being said the group Sabaton recorded a song called Hellfighters. The lyrics tell the story. The album it is on tells many of the WW I stories that many of us haven’t heard

addam , These stories have been left out on purpose to fit the false narrative of white supremacy. The truth needs to be told. African Americans have fought in every American conflict dating back to the American Revolution.

Amazing never heard of them before should be placed in schools as part of positive history. Not all black history should show only oppressed slavery. Nonetheless some see this as people of color being used because they were needed. Proud that they were...

amazing story that unfortunately missed the history books when I was a kid growing up during the 60s and 70s and of course it was left out accidentally along with all the other great accomplishments that African-American had made because the government didn't do it intentionally and then lie and say that African-Americans don't have any past history everything that's been created and is great was created by a white person of course the government would never lie to us hahaha 😆 😂

These men were courageous and determined to make their own HISTORY I am proud to say I teach 8th grade Social Studies n it was so good to introduce them to my students

GOD BLESS THEM ONE AND ALL🙏

Absolutely!!! this an important a d crucial part of American History and the Truth needs to be told a our how la k soldiers and other minorities contributed so much, in many died for a country that has co ti dually treated them I. the most "inhuman" ways! It's way past time for America to a knowledge these men and women on ALL platforms; school books , libraries. movies, historical ar hi es and many more. its hidden facts like these

Pennyenn, Did you forget the Irish?

Wow America didn't want to participate with them cuz they were black. Makes sense as usual l.

knew this because the owner of my service station and it's chief mechanic's father was in this military group, and he has plaques all over the station to show the world how proud he is.

Yaz, Don't forget the white young men who come from low income and low to little educational backgrounds have been the main cannon fodder chosen to fight the wars and thus suffered the most casualties

Yaz, RIGHT!!
