We, Too, Are Americans

 


"The performance of the Negro serviceman has been particularly inspirational to me. They have served with distinction. The Negro serviceman, like all servicemen, has been a credit to his country. He has been courageous on the battlefield, proficient, and a possessor of technical skills. And like his white buddy, he understand what it is all about." — General William C. Westmoreland, 1967
