As the United States recovered from the Civil War, Congress created the first all-Black peacetime regiments. The six regiments were later reduced to four, earning the name Buffalo Soldiers. Despite not receiving full recognition, these soldiers served with pride, dignity, and bravery, fighting in the Southwest and abroad. Their story includes remarkable individuals, such as George Jordan, who rose from being formally enslaved to Sergeant and Medal of Honor recipient. The documentary also highlights racism and setbacks faced by soldiers like Colonel Charles Young, who advanced to Colonel but was denied the title of first Black General.
