The Men of the 65th: The Borinqueneers of the Korean War
It was the largest mass court martial of the Korean War, with one of the most decorated regiments in the US Army tried for willful disobedience. Nicknamed the Borinqueneers, the 65th Regiment was the envy of generals and the pride of Puerto Rico. How could a regiment known for honourable service in two world wars lay down their arms and refuse to fight? From their founding in 1901 to their service in the Global War on Terrorism, author Talia Aikens-Nuûez tells the stories of these soldiers, their successes, their failures, and the discrimination they faced in their service of the United States.
