actually, Black VOLUNTEERS served in essentially every job that modern GIs would call "MOS".they served in the front lines & in the rear doing every sort of job.(ONE of the many ways that the LEFTIST/REVISIONIST/PC left LIES is saying that slaves didn't voluntarily serve as soldiers/sailors/marines. as far as that goes, that is TRUE. the REAL TRUTH is that the Black soldiers/sailors/marines were FREEMEN, as slaves were NOT FREE to take the Oath of Enlistment! the LEFTISTS/REVISIONISTS/socialists know this;it's called LYING BY OMISSION!)
btw,i ask any of you who are reading this to come with me to ANY US military post/base/camp, go to the PX/BX parking lot & start shouting that artillerymen, corpsmen,truck drivers,mechanics, clerks, paymasters,signalmen,MPs, etc,etc,etc are NOT REAL SOLDIERS/SAILORS/MARINES.
i will then QUIETLY stand back & watch those "pretend soldiers" punch you out. rotflmRao.

one school that i recently spoke at had about 2200 students in grades 9-12. over 180 foreign languages are spoken at that ONE school (and before someone accuses me of xenophobia, i found the "foreign students" to be the most attentive, gracious & polite.)
IF my girls weren't "grown & gone" , we would homeschool!
the LEFTISTS/REVISIONISTS, who so HATE our tattered, blood-spattered, CSA battleflag usually HATE the US flag too.

The mind is usually the first to go, and you don't even notice...
PITY that you haven't taken that to heart.

And just what do they find offensive about the TEXAS Flag?
" And just what do they find offensive about the Texas Flag?"
Oh, they must be from Ohio, California and Michigan.
a "racist/southern state",
that we "unlawfully seized control of the lands of peaceful Latinos & AmerIndians",
that "Texans are mean,stupid, ignorant,gun-crazy, cruel & go around killing innocents (MURDERERS!) for their suspected crimes" AND
that we Texans are JUST "terrible people"???
don't believe me?? just ask any of the LEFTISTS/REVISIONISTS/DIMocRATS/HATERS from the Northeast/blue states!

TEXAS is not part of the South. The South begins at the border with Ark. and La.
maybe so, BUT the LIES, HATRED,ARROGANT IGNORANCE, MEAN-spiritedness & DECEITfulness of the DAMNyankee HATERS & the LEFTIST/REVISIONIST liars, remains (sadly) the same from decade to decade.
since they HATE us southerners so much, you'd think they'd insist on DIVORCING us!(PLEASE, Lord, let that happen!)

MOST of the families from my home county were refugees from TWBTS & were from AL,MS & GA before the "recent unpleasantness". they fled the "old south" (and the DY army!)to find LIBERTY on the TX frontier.

Dont get me wrong, I am a proud owner of a Confederate Flag and all these ignorant, ill bred Yankees on this thread can jump up and kiss my ass!

Once again with the victim sob story. I don't know anyone who hates the south, but I have met so many Southerners who are still fighting the Civil War. Get over it, the war was over 140 years ago and you lost. You are never, ever going to secede again, the South will never rise again as it once was (thank God), and the more you whine and complain about how victimized you are the longer you will stay backwards. You sound like Jesse Jackson and his followers, always complaining about how everything is always someone else's fault.
get a life, go away, do some READING from other than REVISIONIST/LEFTIST sources & leave us southerns alone.
