Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. The Soldier America Forgot is a primary source historical account of Corporal James Milton Hardy, a Black World War II veteran who served in the United States Army from 1942 to 1945 in the South Pacific theater. His service treatment records document malaria in 1943, a co-infection of malaria and dengue fever requiring hospitalization in August 1945, and physical injuries sustained during active duty. Within ninety days of his discharge, a VA claim was filed on his behalf. That claim, assigned file number C-8,512,603 on March 27, 1946, was denied. The denials continued for eighty years.Drawing from the veteran's complete C-file, Army service treatment records, VA rating decisions spanning eight decades, the VA's own 1950 Annual Report documenting racial disparities in claims processing, and a 2025 medical nexus opinion, author Michelle Micki Esposito reconstructs the full timeline of a case that remains active before the Board of Veterans' Appeals.The book documents the contradictions between what the Army recorded and what the VA concluded. It traces the medical chain from wartime infection and physical injury through decades of untreated conditions to the stroke that ended the veteran's life. It examines the racial disparities that shaped the adjudication environment. It names what justice requires. And it places the complete record in public view so that the story of Cpl. James Milton Hardy can never again be buried in a file the government claimed was empty.This is not a memoir. It is a document. It is the record as it exists, presented in full, for the first time. A primary source account of Cpl. James M. Hardy, a Black WWII veteran denied VA benefits for eighty years, including a 1954 denial issued four months after Brown v. Board of Education. His daughter reconstructs the record in full. This item is printed on demand. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
