The story is based on the Houston riot of 1917 during the Great War in which 156 soldiers of the Third Battalion of the all-black Twenty-fourth United States Infantry Regiment rioted after disagreements with the Houston Police Department. It took place over a single night and resulted in the deaths of four soldiers and 16 civilians. The rioting soldiers were tried at three courts-martial for mutiny. Nineteen were executed, and 41 were sentenced to life imprisonment.
