Blacks (officially classified as Negros up until the end of the Vietnam War) were officially SEGREGATED into their own units during all US wars/campaigns/operations/etc until about 1947, when President Truman signed in a new law integrating Black personnel into the US Military. Prior to 1947, Black personnel served primarily as support personnel aboard USN vessels, and support personnel within USA units. Although they served in segregated combat units within the USA, it is unknown whether or not they served aboard their own segregrated warships in the USN. The Korean War (1950-1953) was the first official war fought with Blacks as officially integrated within US military. The Korean War was also the first war fought by the newly formed US Air Force; also created in 1947.
