Upon their return, Black veterans encountered violence back in America. In 1946, an appalling incident occurred in Georgia, where a mob shot and killed 2 Black men and their wives, with no one brought to trial for the crime. In South Carolina, police subjected Army Sergeant Isaac Woodard to a brutal beating with night sticks after pulling him from a bus, leaving him permanently blind.
