| 520 | _a"My Colored Battalion" by Major Warner A. Ross is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book recounts the experiences of a battalion composed entirely of American colored soldiers during World War I, detailing their courage, discipline, and dedication amid the horrors of battle. The author, who served as their commander, aims to highlight the achievements and rightful recognition that these soldiers deserve. The opening of the work establishes Ross's deep pride in commanding the Second Battalion of the 365th Infantry and sets the context for their service during the Great War. He introduces the readers to the battalion's remarkable performance in various military engagements, emphasizing their unwavering morale and discipline in stark contrast to prevailing stereotypes about colored troops. As he reminisces about their shared experiences in training and battle, Major Ross underscores the battalion's pivotal role in significant operations, particularly during the intense fighting near Metz, while advocating for their recognition as capable and dedicated soldiers in American history.
