Henry Johnson
"There wasn't anything so fine about it. Just fought for my life. A rabbit would have done that."
Henry Johnson, a rail station porter who became a soldier in the famed "Harlem Hellfighters," distinguished himself with an act of extraordinary heroism during a night patrol in World War I. His defiant stand against a German raiding party, despite being severely wounded, made him a symbol of courage, tenacity, and the often-overlooked contributions of African American soldiers to the U.S. military.
