Three recommended books on African American armored units in the U.S. Army during WWII:
Brothers in Arms: The Epic Story of the 761st Tank Battalion
The 761st Black Panther Tank Battalion in World War II: An Illustrated History of the First African American Armored Unit to See Combat
The 784th Tank Battalion in World War II: History of an African American Armored Unit in Europe

It is good to see some credit to these African-American units — finally given where it is due.
