According to the Emancipation Proclamation, former slaves were to be "received into the armed services of the United States to garrison forts, positions, stations, and other places, and to man vessels of all sorts in said service." This means that they would have the opportunity to join the military and participate in the defense of the United States.

The proclamation doesn't provide for opportunities. It stated that the slaves in states in rebellion were free. Nothing more.
