Just watched bits of this. Truly remarkable that just for once the Africans are recognised!

Is anyone researching how many 'Black Brits' were accepted by regiments, despite the colour bar promoted by the government?

The BBC programme including the service can be seen on http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b04cp610/world-war-one-remembered-across-the-commonwealth
and can, I believe, be downloaded.  That at least would help you identify contributions on particular aspects of the  War.

I hope this helps.
