I salute them showing we can fight and then fighting for their independence. Same thing with the Senegalese who helped retake Paris who were denied recognition by the French.

The worst was when they were forced to act against their own interests, like when they used West Indian troops to defeat the Ashanti Kingdom in the Gold Coast.
