Not many. Most blacks considered WW2 to be a white mans war. My stepfather landed at Normandy on D-day. He and many more WW2 vets told me there was a huge distrust of blacks on the battlefield. Whenever a black unit was placed to support a white unit they would desert rather than fight to support the white units hence white commanders didnt want any part of them in battle. In WW2 416,000 white men mostly christian died. Only 700 blacks and 16 women died. Many many black entertainers got out of doeing service in WW2 by telling the draft board that they hated whites and would probably kill some if they were given guns. I think it was Dizzy Gilespie that did that along with many more. Talk about hate!
