The Abraham Lincoln Brigade







During the Spanish Civil War (1936-39), almost forty thousand men and women from fifty-two countries, including 2,800 Americans volunteered to travel to Spain and join the International Brigades to help fight fascism. The U.S. volunteers served in various units and came to be known collectively as the Abraham Lincoln Brigade.

1. True. The Lincoln Brigade probably contained a lot of communists.

And they were fighting against forces supported by Italy and Germany. The Soviet Red Army, which was led by communists, played an important role in defeating Nazi Germany.
