5Love, War and the 96th (Colored)  Mar 23, 2009
By J. Aronowitz
One of the most personal, poignant views of Army life of a young Officer in the Pacific Region of WWII. CPT Samuelson was ahead of his times in terms of race relations in the military. A must read for separated military family members - maintaining a diary will now become the adult thing to do.
