    I find this very interesting that they used Black soldiers to build the Ledo rd. I’ve studied WWII intensively and in all the pictures and videos, I’ve NEVER seen Black troops working on it-just Indian or Burmese locals. I believe your story about the troops being involved I just wonder why they seem to have never either been filmed or if they were, it’s not been shown. In all these years, I have never seen the film clips you show here. I find that extremely sad. These men deserves to have their story known long before now!!! Thanks for this story.

They too were worked to death by the railroads for less pay than the caucasian (Irish) workers. And they too were buried in mass graves without much thought. To the railroad companies, they were as replaceable as railway ties.

    What happens when somebody who doesn't want to go to war in a country far away from his home and is then persecuted for not complying with every last diktat. Non-compliance cannot be tolerated by the warmongers because the warmongers depend upon total compliance, feeding meat into their grinder. Refusal to comply with an order to go suffer in a foreign land is countered by domestic persecution, of course - along the lines of "you're going to die, son, just choose where".

    If Perry had been treated fairly by the Army, he would certainly have given as good as he got, and perhaps won a number of decorations as a bona fide war hero. All of the makings of a truly excellent soldier were there, but they were twisted perversely by the abuses of an army that hated him and his race more than they hated the enemy.

This is what stateism and obedience to authority brings, abuse and mass extermination, and if you don't believe we do that ask the 500,000 children who were killed by our sanctions on Iraq in the 90s. Oh you can't, because they're dead, and the secretary of State said "it was worth it."

      Your left wing reply skips my comment completely. I wasn’t talking about Vietnam or the Nazi death camps.i was talking about a US soldier who broke the rules, was being punished, and as a result of said punishment, which definitely sounded unfair and abusive, decided that the appropriate reaction was to kill another US soldier who was doing his duty. That your Woke reply would skip thru the facts and make it completely about something else, isn’t surprising. I am surprised that you didn’t try justifying Hamas driving through Israel’s street murdering its citizens at the beginning of that conflict when there was no fighting or war going on.

    Segregated black US soldiers were often treated like dirt. Hopefully, Perry, one day, receives a Congressional Medal of Honor. He belonged in the OSS, not a stockade.

    12:16. Keep in mind, he had been smoking opium every night for several months at this point when he was captured. So not only did he have to go back to prison, but while going through one of the most hellish experience there is on this earth, opium withdrawal.
    Unless you have experienced it, it is impossible to describe how horrible it is. Its torture in your own head and you cannot escape it for even a second. For WEEKS

      @@Legitpenguins99 Hero stated or not, he was made light of as if he was somehow an upstanding moral guy. Then as with usual in Dark Docs, he contradicts himself and states how bad the guy was. This is why I watch very few DD posts, there's a lot of BS and poor production and editing of the subject matter. This is the first one I've seen in 6 months and it's the same garbage.

    Yes, the road had to be built. It was going to be grueling no matter how it was done. But to add to the misery by insisting on the worse military discipline. One that was just for the sake of cruelty and being able to treat people as though they were less than human. Something like this is going to happen every time. At some point a person is going to snap and a tragedy is going to follow.
    The person most responsible is the general. When he signaled that this treatment of the black solder was acceptable. He made the this the inevitable conclusion. I am not aware of what officer was in charge of this operation. But he must have been bastard and a monster to work for as an officer that career depended on his good graces..

    Holy hell, we did that man wrong. If even half those details are true (a big if, considering the channel) then I hope that, wherever he is, he knows that, while our country may not have appreciated him at the time, I certainly appreciate his sacrifice. I swear, the more I hear of "the greatest generation", the more that title appears steeped in crimson irony. Shameful.
    To be clear, I'm not saying there weren't good human beings among them, full of heroism, optimism, and everything else required to risk, and often lose, your life for the freedom of others...and to those men and women we all owe a great debt...but there were more than enough despicable, hateful, and cowardly among them as well that I feel that moniker is disingenuous at best. May they all rest in peace, regardless.
