Charity Adams Earley was the highest-ranking Black woman in the U.S. Army during World War II. She commanded the 6888th Central Postal Directory Battalion, the only contingent of Black WACs to serve overseas during the war. In spring 2022, President Biden signed the bipartisan legislation to award the 6888th the Congressional Gold Metal.
