FORT BENNING, GA - JUNE 13: Front view of the former 24th Infantry playhouse for black soldiers at Fort Benning. Pvt. Felix Hall said he was headed the post exchange, located next door, on ˜the last day he was seen alive. Hall's body was found hanging from a noose in the woods on the base about six weeks later. Hall's death, which took place in 1941, is the only known lynching to take place on a U.S. military base. (Photo by Kevin D. Liles/For the Washington Post)
