  1. Give pioneering Marines rightful props

    Orlando Opinionators - Orlando Sentinel
    It’s a seductive recruiting slogan: The Few. The Proud. The Marines. Yet, prior to 1941, the words bespoke a damnable irony. The few who served in the Marines were white. And the Corps stood proud of it. Even after President Franklin D. Roosevelt&#...

  4. The Tuskegee Airmen

    The Tuskegee Airmen were dedicated, determined young men who enlisted to become America's first black military airmen, at a time when there were many people who thought that black men lacked intelligence, skill, courage and patriotism. They came from every section of the country, with large numbers coming from New York City, Washington, Los Angeles, Chicago, Philadelphia and Detroit. Each one possessed a strong personal desire to serve the United States of America.

  6. Family Travel: What To Do When You Are (Inevitably) In Seattle

    Funny, isn't it, how we grow up someplace and only rarely visit the major attractions? <a href="http://www.museumofflight.org">Seattle's Museum of Flight&nbsp;</a> is a perfect example. The site of many a school field trip during my younger years (mostly because the majority of my schoolmates' fathers worked at next-door Boeing), the Museum somehow managed to fade from my radar as I grew up, got married, had one son, then became immersed in this business of Life.

  9. Montford Pointers, Nation's 1st African-American Marines, Honored On Memorial Day

    Many people have heard of the Tuskegee Airmen, but few have heard of the Montford Point Marines. They're America's first African-American Marines, but were made to train apart from whites in a separate part of Camp LeJeune, North Carolina called Montford Point.
