I cannot refer back to my text... I know that African Americans were drafted in large numbers and it was an issue to many but my notes don't mention the treatment of them while at war. Is it B?

To determine which statement most accurately describes the treatment of African Americans during the Vietnam War, we need to consider historical evidence.
