Abstract:
Through review of previous military studies and related material, this study reviews the history of black mobilization in the American Military. Specifically, the study reveals historically unique obstacles to black mobilization and how Americas defense establishment responded to those obstacles in efforts to maximize military manpower potential. The study identifies inadequate black education and health care as historically unique socioeconomic obstacles which fundamentally diminish black American human capital and, as a direct consequence, diminish Americas military manpower potential as well. The obstacles have their historic roots in American slavery and are portrayed as logical symptoms of that institution.
