    U.S. Army Captain Hamilton Fish, commander of Company K, 369th Infantry during WWI, in an undated photo. The regiment, formerly the National Guard’s 15th New York Infantry, arrived in France in December 1917 and initially served as a labor force to improve the port of St. Nazaire, France for follow on forces. The infantry regiment would not move on to prepare for combat operations until March 1918. The 369th Infantry, an all-Black combat unit, served with distinction under French command in WWI and received the nickname Hell Fighters of Harlem from their German enemies. Courtesy photo.
