Theodore Banks served in a segregated pioneer infantry regiment with African American enlisted men and white officers. Pioneer infantry regiments worked under the direction of engineers building roads, bridges, gun emplacements and camps, but they could fight as infantry when necessary. Banks joined the Army in 1918, served in France with his regiment, and received the French Croix de Guerre for gallantry.
