Were there segregated units of the army in World War 2?
If the question refers to the US Army, all units were segregated according to race. A white unit was all-white. A black unit had black enlisted and NCOs commanded by white officers, as did the Japanese-American 442nd Regiment. Racial segregation in the US Army did not end until the Truman Administration during the Korean War. In WW2, I think there was a small unit of American Indians from various tribes, part of the 101st Airborne division, but they were also segregated from the white soldiers. The Indians were "Code Talkers". Only the Marine "Windtalkers" Navahos are really known, but the Army used individuals of different tribes for the same reason.
