Sgt. Joe Harris, one of the last surviving members of the all-Black 555th Parachute Infantry Battalion, has passed away at 108. A hero who fought for a country that didn’t always fight for him. As some work to erase our history, we must honor our heroes. Rest in Power. https://apnews.com/article/obit-joe-harris-wwii-paratrooper-101a51c4650fa3101fd00cc0b7cf1b4d
