The Untold Story of D-Day's Forgotten African-American Heroes

Despite the selflessness and valor exemplified by segregated African-American troops during World War II, their heroic stories have been largely overlooked. Journalist and photographer Linda Hervieux discusses her book Forgotten: The Untold Story of D-Day's Black Heroes, at Home and at War which offers detailed accounts of their heroism and interviews with the 12 living members of the all-black 320th Barrage Battalion who fought in D-Day.
