It continues with chapters on the particular problems associated with absorbing large numbers of Negroes into the Army - the provision of physical fitness for service, morale factors influencing their eagerness to serve, and the disorders that attracted so much attention to the problems of their service. The concluding eight chapters are concerned principally with the employment of Negro soldiers overseas, in ground and air combat units and in service units.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Related products: \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Other products produced by the \u003cb\u003eU.S. Army, Center of Military History\u003c\/b\u003e can be found here: https: \/\/bookstore.gpo.gov\/agency\/1061\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eMinorities, Cultures \u0026amp; Languages resources collection\u003c\/b\u003e can be found here: https: \/\/bookstore.gpo.gov\/catalog\/minorities-cultures-languages\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Department of the Army","offers":[{"title":"Employment of Negro Troops (Paperback) | Center of Military History (U S Army) | Paperback | 016042951X | Used: Very Good | Back Stacks D 1782937","offer_id":50770398839042,"sku":"1782937","price":46.79,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/A1Rh3Wfv7TL.jpg?v=1792124174","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/employment-of-negro-troops-paperback","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
