Earlier this year I got to go to the Patton museum down at Ft. Knox. I was in march, and they had a Black History month display up. I learned that there was a black tank battalion (the 761st)that fought with Patton's 3rd Army. They were the first black tank unit to fight in combat. The were a very good unit, requested by Patton himself. The performed on a level similar to the Tuskegee Airmen. I'd never heard of them though. The next day back at work, I was on an EMS run where I met an older Black gentleman, who as conicidence had it, had served in the 761st. He was kind of hard to understand, due to age and medical condition, but he mentioned that he was in a half-track during the war. A really neat experience. (He wasn't seriously ill, luckily)
