Oscar Marion
Oscar Marion was an American slave and militiaman during the Revolutionary War. He was the slave of Brigadier-General Francis Marion, the legendary "Swamp Fox." In December 2006, Oscar Marion was recognized as an "African American Patriot" in a ceremony at the U.S. Capitol, and a proclamation signed by President George W. Bush expressed the appreciation of a "grateful nation" for Oscar Marion's "devoted and selfless consecration to the service of our country in the Armed Forces of the United States."
