WWI? You mean when democrat Woodrow Wilson segregated the Navy who, until then was free of it?
BTW, both America and South Africa refrined from using Blacks as combattant troops. There were many not so noble reasons for it but one of them was west immemorial tradition (goes back to Roime and even Greece) of citizenshiop going hand in hand with being asked to fight for country. France required its colonials to fight for her but didn’t gave them rights…
Also, your documents don’t point to African Americans fighting in the French Army be it in WWI or WII. So your story still sounds bogus. My guess is that you are whiter than myself.
