One of the best Marines I ever knew was one Corporal Butler who came from Watts and nearly all of his family was in jail or on probation while he served in the Corps. He defied the stereotypes. He was my brother. We were one color when it counted — Green. You will never hear about him in the history books, nor will you see him on TV, but he was an outstanding American and a true patriot.

Serving honorably...bravely...in our Armed Forces is just one way that black people through history have done themselves,and this country,proud.The concept of black history month...or white history month is beyond foolish and divisive.Goodness and honor...as well as worthlessness and disgrace...know no color boundaries in this nation.Never have...and unless the Rat Party finally has its way...they never will.
