Not true for all black troops.

Two all-black infantry divisions were formed and several other smaller combat units such as Anti-Tank Destroyer battalions.

The 92nd "Buffalo" Infantry Division served in the Italian Campaign for almost 6 months.

It is true that a large proportion of Black troops served in engineering and supply units, where they were used for manual labor. However, in fairness to the military of the time, it should be added that most enlisted personnel serving with engineering and supply units were used for manual labor. That's what such units did. It had nothing to do with race.
