US Troops Arrive in Detroit
Racial strife subsided in Detroit on June 22, 1943 after the arrival of US troops the night before. Here are members of the 208th Military Police from Fort Custer setting up tents and equipment on the grounds of Northwestern High School, a location that makes for quick movement to almost any point in the city.
