This video was originally titled “African American Heroes.”  I changed it and hope we can get rid of those silly little boxes people want us to “check” (African American, Caucasian, Asian, etc.).

I prefer to “check” American citizen.

Enjoy this video that honors true American Heroes of World War II.

Brandon, you and I benefited from the changes that occurred during this generation and the one that served in Vietnam.  Our experiences in service to our nation were truly for the most part colorblind.  As I see it a man is a man, and we are lucky to have so many hardworking honorable people willing to volunteer.

 @Old PH2 Couldn't agree more on the "American citizen" and, if you asked them, that's how they felt.

 

The hyphenate stuff is intended to divide us

 @Old PH2 Agreed I hate those labels and I'm not real fond of that politically correct garbage that puts everyone in a certain category. I don't need to know if they are black, green yellow or whatever. I only need to know what they did.
