Led by the trailblazing Charity Adams, the first Black woman to serve as a U.S. Army officer, this remarkable battalion not only overcame the brutal realities of segregation and discrimination but also helped deliver hope to soldiers fighting on the frontlines by clearing a backlog of 17 million letters in record time. Their unwavering commitment to their mission and each other shattered barriers, reshaping the role of women in the military and proving that hope, no matter how small, can change the world.
