[Non-Sequitur]

the fact that there were jewish nazis however has NOTHING to do with the ESTABLISHED FACT that >100,000 FREE black men and not a few black women served the southland FAITHFULLY & HONORABLY as soldiers,sailors & marines.

That is out of a free black population of what size?

[stand watie]

FRANKLY nobody knows that answer for sure- VA had over 60,000 free black men alone. most states, surprisingly, did NOT keep records by race, NOR did the pension records of any state but KY mention race either.

that's just ONE of the frustrations of southron ethnography; for example my friend who is doing a study of the religious, ethnic,social structures of BOTH military forces in the WBTS has had a VERY difficult time separating the LEEs who are of anglo-saxon ancestry from those LEEs of Asian ancestory.
