July of 1944, after the invasion of Normandy – The Unknown X-Platoon of the Ninth Infantry Regiment in WWII, by Al Castillo 2015, with reuse here with Al’s permission. This is a PDF document he wrote and which is available for your review and reading enjoyment.

Not too many people have heard of the X-Platoons or the important role they played in winning the war during World War Two. In fact most military historians have never heard or know what the X-Platoons were. This was not some scientific experiment from a comic book, but ordinary men who were called to do their duty and did it proudly. The X-Platoons were Platoons consisting of all African Americans whom were attached to several different Army Divisions in World War Two.
