Oleta Crain

[edit]
  • ... that Oleta Crain, one of only three black women officers in training in the U.S. army in 1943, was not allowed to sleep in the same barracks as the white women, or take a shower at the same time? Source: "Crain was one of three black women out of a total of 300 women nationally who entered officer training. ... The three weren't allowed to be in the barracks with the white women, so they were put in separate rooms ... they weren't allowed to shower with whites" (The Denver Post)
