Donald Ringgold, a former helicopter aviator now pilots the huge Cl3O. BLACK MARINES TAKE TO THE AIR Although Marine pilots first took to the air in 1912, there were no black aviators in the Corps until about 20 years ago. Today about one out of every three black Marine officers is a flyer. Among this growing number are three pilots at various stages in their careers who agree that the Corps offers experience, training and prestige hard to find elsewhere. And, contrary to popular belief, they all feel that good pilots are made, not born. Only one, Ist. Lt. Andre Summers of Washington, D.C., grew up wanting to be a pilot. The other two, Capt. Donald G. Ringgold of Detroit, and Ist. Lt. Emerson F. Carr of Minneapolis, were in their late teens or early twenties when they decided that a pilot’s life in the Marine Corps was their thing. “Flying had always been my goal,” says 25-year-old Summers. “I can still remember the thrill I used to get when my mother would take me to the airport to watch the planes take off and land.” Summers’ father, now deceased, had a great deal to do with his joining the Marines. In World War 11, the elder Summers had been among the first to integrate the Corps; service career. Miss Barry stated that she left the civil service in 1944 on the threshold of an appointment to the position of administrative assistant because the franchise that operated the cafeteria at Oliver General Hospital would not serve Blacks. Other students to appear in the next published edition of Who’s Who among American High School Students are Josephine Ruffin, Bernestine Burley, Cheryl Cooper, Diane Down, Tilman McDaniel, Nieta Scott, Deborah Young and Harvey Boyd. The four virtues of the National Honor Society are character, service, leadership and scholarship. The advisor for the National Honor Society is Mrs. Ruth E. James. and, even then, he had been in a segregated unit. Still, he held a high regard for the training he received. Summers was graduated from Springarn High School in Washington where he was senior class president, captain of the football team and president of the varsity club. Next stop in his goal toward becoming a pilot was Morgan State College in Baltimore, where he received a degree in Business Administration. His first real taste of the military also came at Morgan State when Summers became the lieutenant colonel of the Army ROTC unit there. However, he decided to join the Corps because it gave him a chance to fly. He is stationed at Cherry Point, N.C., and is a co-pilot of the huge and powerful Hercules C-130 aircraft. The C-130’s main Marine tasks are aerial refueling of jets and long-range transportation of troops or cargo. The plane has a range of 8,000 miles and cruises at approximately 400 miles per hour. It has a crew of five. Between flights, Summers and his wife, Bernedette, entertain themselves at the base’s many recreational facilities. Capt. Donald Ringgold also flies a C-130 out of Cherry Point and his current duties include administrative flights for the wing staff and piloting his commanding general’s aircraft. He is also the Operations Officer for his squadron. Ringgold, however, didn’t decide to become a pilot until he was in college, nor did he begin his career by flying conventional aircraft. His first tour was as a helicopter pilot in Vietnam For The Best In Shoe Repair y ■ flßjß E| 6t'rtWebb Heis the Owner operator SSJI Os IMM JH J. .111 iL WJ ffIHMII "DR.

When Ringgold returned to the States, he requested additional training to become qualified to fly the C-130’s. On a second tour in southeast Asia, Capt. Ringgold flew missions in Marine C-130’s and visited Taiwan, Thailand, Hong Kong, Japan and Guam. When not flying or spending time with his wife, Charlotte, and their five-year-old daughter, Capt. Ringgold uses his spare hours either hunting or fishing. The hunting is usually for deer and squirrel that abound on and near the base. He also owns a 19-foot fishing boat and sometimes goes nearly fifty miles out into the Atlantic, searching for king fish and blue fish. First Lt. Emerson Carr pilots an Intruder A-6 aircraft out of Cherry Point on a different kind of mission. The A-6 is the Marine’s subsonic, all-weather attack aircraft. As pilot, Carr handles the aircraft and all communications. Beside him sits a navigator who uses sophisticated equipment designed to locate, track and attack targets at night and under all weather conditions.

Football continued to play an important part of his life. At the Naval Academy, he played varsity ball as a middle guard and middle linebacker. Upon graduation, Carr elected to become a Marine aviator and after flight training he received his wings. “I enjoy flying to the fullest,” says Carr. “Not many people realize it but in sheer numbers and strength, Marine Air is bigger than most of the world’s tactical air forces.” There are several ways to become a Marine Aviator, according to Carr. He advises those willing to learn more about these career opportunities to contact a local Marine recruiter since the Marine Corps is currently undergoing an intensive recruitment campaign to attract more blacks and others to join officer training programs. Carr, like his fellow officers at Cherry Point, enjoys a relaxed life off duty. He and his wife, Frances, have one son. While the younger Carr takes up a good portion of their time, the two still find time to play golf and participate in other pasttimes offered at the Marine Corps facility.
