No. The armed force remained firmly segregated until President Truman ordered an end to the practice in 1948. Michael Montagne
NO!
It should have, but it didn't, as can be seen by the needed efforts of Dr. Martin Luther King.
In fact Black people had participated in every American war, with no lessening in racial discrimination.
Sad but true.
The first step towards ending discrimination was the Korean War, followed by the Army allowing Black people to join the Army on a reasonably equal basis, and with a fairly equal opportunity for advancement. Once people worked side by side with one another the attitudes towards Black people started fading with some, a great step in the right direction.

No, from an American WWII bomber pilot veteran that I talked to. There was still racism.
Yes. The black nation was respected as an elite Airforce.
