Fred McIntyre known as Devil's Man holds in his hands a portrait of the Kaiser framed with bullets that he took from a German Soldier
Colorized by Marina Amaral
Corporal Fred McIntyre served in World War I with the USA Army's 369th Infantry Regiment, a lavishly decorated regiment that was better known by its nickname: the Harlem Hellfighters. The Hellfighters, part of the New York National Guard, stood out for several reasons: uncommon courage, the exceptional ragtime-influenced brass band, and their Afroness. Only ten percent of the American soldiers were African.
In July 1918 they were fighting alongside the French along the Marne River. In fact, militarily they became French, as the 369th were integrated into the French Army. They wore hybrid uniforms (including the French Adrian helmet), carried Gallic rifles, and received French troop wine rations.
The Harlem Hellfighters accumulated more casualties on the Western Front than any other American regiment, but received numerous medals for their bravery. One member of the regiment, Henry Porter, nicknamed Black Death, was the first American to receive the prestigious Croix de Guerre, which was also awarded collectively to the entire 369th Regiment.

I kind of hate the soldier. I'm gonna re-draw this when I'm better at digital art or get like an actual drawing tablet. I just use ibis paint on my phone and am experimenting with my art style, bare with me😭
But anyways this is supposed to be like that scene in the AQOTWF book where they find a sign of a pretty lady. Lust for love and touch during war is something soldiers face that no one really thinks about. But these men were out on the front, and constant fighting as well as artillery shells and gunfire, and without women. It sounds weird, but just think about it, think about being at war and not being able to even see any women. Especially as a young man, which large majority of soldiers were.

German Prisoners
From 15 to 20 September 1916, the Canadians captured and held the village of Courcelette. During that time, they took 1,040 German prisoners. Canadians here are seen providing the prisoners with cigarettes, food, and drinks. Prisoners would then likely have been taken to cages behind the lines, and finally to prisoner of war camps in France or England.
