American society and the armed forces have made significant
progress since the revolutionary war toward integrating Blacks in
American society as well as the armed forces. While significant
progress has been made, there are social and cultural issues that
still plague our society. This research paper will explore whether
Blacks in Army aviation compose a percentage that is proportionate
to their composition of American society? This research paper looks
holistically at the Army, the armed forces and social issues
relevant to Blacks serving in the military. It begins by looking at
the first large scale use of Blacks in the armed forces and the
dominant belief that the Black man was intellectually inferior
which led to many hardships and privations. Hardships and
privations will be explored at length along with the role society
played in shaping military policy. It is also necessary to examine
accomplishments by Blacks in order to refute the Army War College
Study of 1925, which negatively affected the military and the
effort by Blacks to serve in combat during World War II.
