The Forgotten Soldier: The Story of the 371st Infantry Regiment

Join the Orangeburg County Historical Society for a moving evening as we explore the history of the 371st Infantry Regiment through rare images, original flags and stories of sacrifice, courage and legacy.

The 371st Infantry Regiment was formed from African American draftees, many from right here in South Carolina. They trained hard. They fought bravely. They returned home with international medals and honors. And then, they were forgotten.

After the presentation there will be a Q&A session.
