Missing you so much Granddad. Thank you for everything that you did for this country and our family. We love you Kenneth Rollock Sr. My hero. ❤️ seen at 19:30 and 21:35
I get chills every time I have the honor of meeting these Marines. I first learned about them while serving in the Gulf War. Thanks to all of The Montfort Point Marines for paving the way for us in the Corps. SEMPER FI‼️🍻
Omg!!!!!!. I didn't know that Montfort Point is now Camp Johnson. I was there in 1987. I was marching near the Jacksonville gate. I saw the Montfots Point sign. I asked my boxing coach Sgt. Michael who they were. He told me and it damn near brought tears to my eyes. I immediately became so proud of them. My feelings were hurt because never in bootcamp were we told about these amazing men!!!!!!. Since then I've learned as much as I could about them. I salute you Devil Dogs. You all paved the way for us and we thank you. Semper Fidelis❤
My grandfather was part of that First Wave of United States Marines who trained and earned that title. I appreciate the sacrifice of all those men who chose that decision to show that they can do that job as well as any white man. GOD bless us all.,
As a black Marine Sergeant that was a Staff Sergeant selectee in 1990, I attended the Staff Noncommissioned Officer Academy in Jacksonville, NC. at Camp Johnson/Montoford Point, and let me tell you all, that when I realized where I was, I could just see in my minds eye all the black Marine Recruits that walked the hallowed grounds of that base, to be in the bathroom facility/head building, just imagining what they may have been discussing, knowing they were headed to the South Pacific, to fight in all the Marine Corps Island hopping campaigns. Racist history hasn't come clean on it yet, but the Montoford Point Marine field artillery units, were quite proficient at what they were called to do, saving countless lives in the process............🪖🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🪖
