Immortal Valor

In "Immortal Valor" by Robert Child, narrated by Vaughn Johseph, listeners explore the poignant journey of seven African American soldiers whose extraordinary acts of bravery during World War II were overlooked for decades due to racial discrimination. Despite the valor exhibited by these men, such as Vernon Baker and Reuben Rivers, none received the Medal of Honor when it was initially awarded. The narrative delves into their remarkable stories and the lengthy campaign for recognition that ultimately led to posthumous awards in 1997.
