African Americans and ROTC

Military, Naval and Aeroscience Programs at Historically Black Colleges, 1916-1973

By: Charles Johnson, Jr.

This work covers Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC) detachments at historically African American colleges and universities throughout the United States from the inception of the Student Army Training Corps to the advanced programs currently in place. The armistices following World War I allowed for ROTC programs to be set up, World War II saw a push for recruits, and American participation in Vietnam made use of black soldiers more than ever. Despite African American participation in the military in war and peace, it took nearly 60 years for black collegiate education institutions (around 1973) to fulfill their need for Army, Navy and Air Force ROTC programs producing commissioned officers. The book discusses the beginnings of the ROTC programs at African American colleges with the Student Army Training Corps and the establishment, expansion and reorganization of the programs that followed. The acquisition of Air Force and Navy ROTC programs are discussed and all the revisions to the various programs thereafter, including opening them up to women.

The A to Z of the Puritans

By: Charles Pastoor,Galen K. Johnson

Members of the Church of England until the mid-16th century, the Puritans thought the Church had become too political and needed to be 'purified.' While many Puritans believed the Church was capable of reform, a large number decided that separating from the Church was their only remaining course of action. Thus the mass migration of Puritans (known as Pilgrims) to America took place. Although Puritanism died in England around 1689 and in America in 1758, Puritan beliefs, such as self-reliance, frugality, industry, and energy remain standards of the American ideal. The A to Z of Puritans tells the story of Puritanism from its origins until its eventual demise. This is done through a chronology, an introduction, a bibliography, and several hundred cross-referenced dictionary entries on important people, places, and events.

Rich In Experience: A Memoir

By: Charles B. Mikell, Jr.

Rich in Experience is a memoir by the late Charles B. Mikell, Jr., Chief Judge of the Georgia Court of Appeals. Judge Mikell--or "Charlie," as many knew him--became one of Georgia's great jurists, but his path was long and winding. Rich in Experience takes the reader from Charlie's humble beginnings in coastal Georgia, through the hallowed halls of Princeton University, humid jungles of the Vietnam War, grey uniformity of Communist Czechslovakia, and rarified courtrooms throughout the State of Georgia. Charlie's stories about French kissing his high school dates, smuggling a Czechslovak president's silverware, and settling high-stakes disputes in Georgia law, among other things, are sure to intrigue and delight. He began work on Rich in Experience after being diagnosed with multiple myeloma, a cancer of the bone marrow. Throughout the following seven years, until his death in 2013, Charlie meditated and reflected on the rich experiences of his life and produced this compelling volume.
