Tell the class the history of this person(s) or units as it relates to African American Military History and remember to cite where you found your information. Also read two of your peers Soldier discussions and comment on the units or people they chose in comparison to the ones your wrote about.

 

Pick wisely!!!..You cannot repeat a person already covered in the INITIAL post where another student has claimed or points will be taken off for repeating material already covered and label your discussion heading with the key figure’s name.

 

 

***You can label your heading prior to writing your discussion response…so you can claim the person or regiment before someone else does.
