Black Civil War Veterans Finally Get Some Respect Paid To Them!
On Veterans Day, I always tend to think of the soldiers who fought in recent wars. But what about those who were never acknowledged for the risking their lives in wars long past? Well, I found an interesting article that covers the story of a black civil war soldier who finally gets honored with a tombstone by the National Parks Service in South Carolina. Here's the link to that story :

This video is also about a man's quest to honor the black civil war veterans who are in unmarked graves with tombstones.
