We need heroes in this country right now, and nobody better exemplifies the best in our country than the Tuskegee Airmen. They fought fascism in Europe and racism on our continent. I am humbled to be in their presence and overjoyed that TriState Tuskegee Airmen Inc. chose to honor me this year; and it was a real pleasure to join their Annual Scholarship Gala and meet fellow honorees Lieutenant General (Ret.) Thomas Bostick, Charles E. Phillips Jr., CEO, Infor, and Reynard Burns, Public Relations Officer, Claud B. Govan Tri-State Chapter Tuskegee Airmen Inc.
Thank you!
