Question

Which statement most correctly describes the treatment of African Americans during the Vietnam War?

African American soldiers were often promoted to leadership positions due to the vigorous fighting spirit of their segregated units.
African American soldiers were never placed in combat situations and typically found themselves serving in janitorial or kitchen work.
African American soldiers typically received combat assignments and rarely received training that promoted their military career.
African American soldiers were eliminated from being called on during the draft and did not have to serve during the Vietnam War.
Is it C?

Answer 1

I disagree.

What does your reading assignment say?

Answer 2

I cannot refer back to my text... I know that African Americans were drafted in large numbers and it was an issue to many but my notes don't mention the treatment of them while at war. Is it B?

Answer 3

No, it is not B.

Why can't you refer back to your assignment?

I've checked two of your guesses. Now you're on your own. Please do not post this question again.

Answer 4

It is C, the materials say "African American soldiers typically received combat assignments and rarely received training that promoted their military career." You typically can't refer back to them in these kinds of tests.

Answer 5

Sue, maybe try not being rude to students.
