咸肉煎锅就是一个小小的军工厂
A skillet of bacon grease

在北卡罗来纳州的布拉格堡
At Fort Bragg, North Carolina,
世界上最大的训练营里
in the largest training camp
of its kind in the world,
800名有色人种新兵接受了基本体能训练
800 colored rookies get
their basic physical buildup
迎接即将到来的危局
for eventful days to come.
10周前他们还是矿工、钢铁工人
Ten weeks ago they were
coal miners, steel workers,
技工、职业拳手
mechanics, professional boxers;
实际上从大学教师到酒店门房♥
in fact, most everything
from college teachers
几乎什么人都有
to Pullman porters.
又经过几周这样的强化训练
A few weeks more
of this intensive drill
他们会成为
and they'll become
著名的第16野战炮兵营的补充兵员

of the famed 16th Battalion;
这是一支精干的战斗部队
a compact fighting force
里面有炮手、无线电兵和信♥号♥♥兵

一个来自全国各地的全黑人团队

from all over the nation;
一个充满渴望、训练有素的单位随时准备

and eager to join the fight
为保存赋予他们生命的伟大民♥主♥而战
for survival of the great
democracy that gave them birth.
好吧各位

以及本训练营的接待中心

你们将从一个平民
You'll be converted
from a civilian
转变为一个成熟的战士
into a full-fledged soldier.
我进去的时候
When I went in, they, uh,
他们有一个小本子
had a pad.
“眼睛：黑色
And "eyes: Negro;
“头发：黑色
"Hair: Negro;
“面色：黑色
"Color: Negro;
“肤色：黑色
"Complexion: Negro;
约翰.格雷亚拉巴马州莫比尔
种族：黑人”
Race: Negro."
所有都是“黑色” 除了身高和体重
Everything was "Negro"
except height and weight.
尽管非裔美国人
Despite the bravery
在美国以往所有的战争都表现英勇
of African-Americans in all
of America's previous wars,
尽管全美有色人种协进会和其他组织认为
despite the argument made
by the NAACP and others
“黑人军队不能为自♥由♥世界而战”
that "a Jim Crow army cannot
fight for a free world,"
美国♥军♥队
the armed forces
of the United States
仍然保持严格的种族隔离
remained strictly segregated.
来自北方的黑人应征者
Black draftees from the North
被送往南方腹地的训练营
sent to training camps
in the deep South,
第一次遭遇到种族隔离法
encountered Jim Crow laws
for the first time.
一些违反那些法律的人
Some, who defied those laws,
付出了生命的代价
paid with their lives.
一些人拒绝在实行隔离政策的军队服役
Some men refused to serve
in a segregated military
因此被投入监狱
and were imprisoned for it.
在国内和国外时常发生冲突
At home and overseas,
there were frequent
有时血腥的冲突
and sometimes bloody
confrontations
发生在黑人士兵与白人市民
between black servicemen
and white civilians,
黑人部队与白人部队之间
black troops and white ones,
发生在妇女和当地习俗
over women and local customs,
以及平等使用军事设施等问题上
and equal access
to military facilities.
日益增长的非裔美国人的抗♥议♥
Growing protest
by African-Americans
将迫使军方作出一些改变
would force the military
to make a few changes.
一个陆军航♥空♥队训练营
An Army Air Corps training camp
在阿♥拉♥巴马州的塔斯基吉学院成立
was set up at Tuskegee Institute
in Alabama.
一艘名为
A single ship,
“梅森”的美国战舰配备的全是黑人
the USS Mason, was manned
entirely by blacks...
除了舰长
except for her commander.
最终将在欧洲作战的
The 761st Tank Battalion
第761坦克营
would eventually
fight in Europe,
被乔治.巴顿派往前线
sent to the front
by George Patton
同时告诫他们“我不在乎你什么肤色
with the admonition: "I don't
care what color you are,
“只要你去那儿杀掉
"so long as you go
up there and kill
那些狗♥娘♥养♥的德国佬”
those Kraut sons of bitches."
海军陆战队曾完全拒绝接受任何黑人
The Marine Corps had refused
to accept any blacks at all,
但1942年以后随着太平洋战区伤亡大增
but after 1942, as casualties
in the Pacific mounted
民权团体的压力加强
and pressure from civil rights
groups intensified,
约翰.格雷和其他人最终获准
John Gray and others
were finally allowed
登记加入
to sign on and serve...
实行隔离的部队
in segregated units.
他们不打算
They did not intend
让黑人成为战斗部队
to have blacks
as fighting units.
如果有可能
They intended to have them,
也只是作为后勤部队
if at all, as support units.
看来你该明白这个事实
Look like you ought
to appreciate the fact
你不适合上前线
that you're not up front.
他们不希望你获得那种荣耀
But they didn't want you
to get that kind of a glory.
约翰.格雷被派往北卡罗来纳州的勒琼训练营
John Gray was sent to
Camp LeJeune, North Carolina,
在那里他加入了第51防卫营
where he joined
the 51st Defense Battalion,
这是海军陆战队里仅有的
one of only two black units
接受战斗训练的两支黑人部队之一
being trained for combat
in the Marine Corps.
其指挥官是弗洛伊德.史蒂文森中校
Its commander was
Lt. Colonel Floyd Stephenson,
他是一位经历过珍珠港袭击的老兵
a veteran of the attack
on Pearl Harbor,
他的手下忠心耿耿因他宣称
who won his men's loyalty
by declaring,
“黑人部队什么都能学会”
"There is nothing that black
troops cannot be taught."
他与约翰.格雷平素所见的长官
He was a far cry
from the officers
迥然不同
John Gray was used to.
他不同于拉尔森少校
And that was different
from Major Larsen,
此人称他曾在丛林里出生入死
who said he had been out
in the jungles
这里那里打仗
and he had fought this
and he had done that
他回来寻找女陆战队员
and he came back
to find women Marines
陆战队军犬还有“你们这些人”
and dog Marines
and then "you people."
我们不喜欢有人说“你们这些人”
We didn't like for people
to say "you people."
他们提到部队不说“部队”
So instead of referring
to troops as "troops,"
一直都说黑人部队是“你们这些人”
they would always refer
to black troops as "you people."
我们很不满
And we resented that.
约翰.格雷及其部队最终
John Gray and
his unit were eventually
被派往南太平洋
sent to the South Pacific.
他们被训练为专业炮手
