The first all-Black regiment of Union soldiers was the 54th Massachusetts Infantry Regiment, formed in 1863 during the American Civil War. It was organized in Massachusetts and became famous for its courageous assault on Fort Wagner in South Carolina in July 1863. The regiment played a crucial role in demonstrating the bravery and capabilities of Black soldiers in the fight for freedom and equality.
Black Watch - Royal Highland Regiment - was created in 1725.
Black Watch - Royal Highland Regiment - ended in 2006.
Black Watch - Royal Highland Regiment -'s motto is 'Nemo me impune lacessit'.

yes Chapdog82--- Frederick Douglass was a major civil rights activist in the 19th Century Noted for Books and Speeches on Slavery and Oppression. He was NOT a regiment! Two of his sons served in the 54th Massachussets Regiment. Which was not the first black regiment formed but one of the first Northen Black Regiments formed. the first Recruited regiment was probably the 1st Louisianna Native Guards or The First South Carolina Colored infantry. The first black regiment to fight was the 1 Kansas Colored.
