The buffalo soldiers were African-American men and women, fighting for our country during the vulnerable times when it was needed it most. No doubt is the fact that serving one's country and giving one's life is the ultimate sacrifice to make. The question is, why did African-Americans put their lives on the line in and for a country that denied them every opportunity. That inquiry still isn't clearly answered, but one thing is for sure. Without the Buffalo Soldiers, the American military would've been lacking heart, strength and remarkable fighting skills. They stood up to the resilience of not only their opponents, but many of their own countrymen due to the issue of skin color. The Buffalo Soldiers dealt with life in rundown villages and poorly ventilated, vermin infested hovels. Due to these conditions, crippling diseases such as dysentery, diarrhea, bronchitis, and tuberculosis were a common problem.
