Re: [californiadisasters] 1944 Port Chicago Disaster, Monday, 18 July 2016

It's something that is not really discussed as the sailors were mostly Black/Negro. What we now refer to as African-American. Like most race issues in those days, we swept it under the carpet.

wow....I had read about
this in the history books but it was just 'there was a
huge explosion' sort of description.  The details make
all the difference....holy COW.  Poor
people....!
Thanks,
Kim.  Seriously.
