What roles did women and African-Americans have in fighting world war 1?

Answer 1

with all the men at war women were left to do all the jobs usually ocupied by men at home, they ran fire stations delivered mail ran farms looked after the finances, all the jobs men would have had if they had been there. women also helped in the war effort in more direct ways such as nursing wounded soldiers and sending food packages to soldiers.

African Americans were still seen as inferior to white men so were used as foot soldiers and infantry, they were seen as less of a loss if they died than if a white soldier died. Although an African American may ascend through the ranks within the army it was rare for him to reach a level that would have him in a position where he could order a white person. rascism at its finest folks its all horrible :) hope this helps.

They were organized into the 92nd Infantry Division that consisted of approximately 25,000 black enlistedmen and 1,000 white and black officers. The Division departed for France in June 1918 and was established at a quiet sector of the front lines. It took part in the Meuse-Argonne offensive on 24 September 1918. A second black division was never fully formed. Later, both the 92ndand 93rd Infantry Divisions would re-form as basically all-black units and serve in WW2. Other African-American units were formed; most were support units such as signal or quartermaster units. There was one all-black Tank Destroyer Battalion organized and assigned to General Patton's army in Europe. The Tuskegee Airman were formed into a combat fighter squadron that served in Italy. A bomber squadron was in training but were held back from service, which lead to the "Freeman Field Mutiny" incident. Custermen
