Many are unaware that over 200,000 African American Union soldiers
helped save our NATION. Please see photo of 3,000 school children who
carried bouquets of flowers and sang "John Brown's Body" to honor
captured Union soldiers in Charleston, South Carolina. Members of the
famed Union 54th Massachusetts Infantry Regiment and other African
American Union Regiments were in attendance and performed double-time
marches.
