The nominee for next Air Force chief of staff is a black man.
And one of my best friends and brothers-in-arms in the USAF in the 1980’s was General Lloyd ‘Fig’ Newton.
And my friend MG (ret) Brian Newby was the Air Guard Assistant to The Judge Advocate General. I served with Brian for nearly 30 years. Nobody was more deserving, even if they announced it during Black History month, which pissed him off.
