“This is American History”: At the 17th Annual Montford Point Marines Day
This morning I had the great pleasure of attending the 17th Annual Montford Point Marines Day Ceremony at Camp Gilbert H. Johnson here in Jacksonville, N.C. Every summer the event honors the first African American men to serve in the United States Marine Corps.
