In June 1992, while serving as the first African American Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Colin Powell recommended expanding the Junior ROTC program, calling it “the best opportunity for the Department of Defense to make a positive impact on the Nation’s youth. Coincidentally, during the same time frame, while assigned to the Pentagon as an action officer, I had the opportunity to meet former Chief of Naval Operations Admiral Elmo Zumwalt at a Surface Navy Association luncheon. I was able to thank him for Z-Gram #66, “Equal Opportunity in the Navy,” and let him know that his Z-Gram and my late father’s service as a ship’s cook in a segregated Navy during World War II on board the USS Outagamie (LST-1073) were my motivation for a career as a commissioned Naval officer. Fast forward to 2019, during my second career as a senior Naval science instructor at WP Davidson High in Alabama. Two of my rising-star NJROTC cadets and I were humbled to experience the sustained JROTC leadership and commitment from General Powell by way of a Hargrove Foundation JROTC grant to one of the most successful Department of Defense (DoD) diversity programs.
