He is Lt. Col. Clarence L. Davis, who joined the Navy 20 years ago to pay his way through medical school. Davis learned to fly, became a Marine aviator and has been flying ever since. The squadron is VMA-214, known as the “Blacksheep”. Sixteen A4M “Skyhawk” jet fighters are assigned to it at the El Toro Marine Corps Air Station near Santa Ana, Calif. Lt. Col. Davis thus became the second Black officer to command a tactical Marine squadron. The first, Lt. Col. Frank Peterson, commanded a Phantom squadron in Vietnam. Davis saw action in Vietnam as a helicoter pilot, winning the Distinquished Flying Cross and 20 air medals. Twice his gunship was shot down as he supported American, Vietnamese and Korean troops in 1968 and 1969. His intellectual interests are as widespread as his flying experience. Lt. Col. Davis is a trained chemist and an experienced data processing officer. He has flown approximately 2,500 hours in jets, 1,000 hours in propellar-driven fixed-wing Walker Ford, Inc. 1225 Walton Way THE CSRA’S GREATEST SALES TEAM 1 JI WORKING Uj* FOR YOU J Down Will Willie Coquitt " | T* | SALE!** Cal * in “ C " r Hill $189.00 Down $78.34 A Month Total Price 2841.00 Total Down Paymentlß9.oo Unpaid Balance 2652.00 Finance Chai ge821.81 Total of Payments 3760.32 WT TORINO Defferred Payment Price 3949.32 Number of Payments 48 at 78.34 $189.00 Down $79.95 APRI2 - 67% Total Price ..; 2895.00 Total Down Paymentlß9.oo •X. * Un P aid Balance 2706.00 Finance Charge 839.19 mustang Total of Payments MUSTANG Defferred Payment Price 4026.60 Number of Payments 48 at 79 95 $lB9 Down $114.51 APR 12.67% ~ Total Price 4075.00 Total Down Paymentlß9.oo unpaid Balance 3886.00 Finance Charge 1204.97 LTD Total of Paymentssslo.Bß Deffered Payment Price 5699.88 Number of Payments 48 at 114.51 PRICES DO NOT INCLUDE STATE APR 12.67% AND LOCAL TAXES AND DEALER ~„ PREPARATION FOR FREE CREDIT CHECK CALL 722-5371 I X \ Ls ■ LT.

Known as “Clancy” to friends and comrades in the air, he has become an expert chef in spare hours, specializing in seafood, steaks and soul cooking at his home in Tustin, Calif. Born in Ville Platt, La., and raised in Galveston, Tex., Davis attended Texas Southern University for three years, studying pharmaceutical sciences. He completed his undergraduate education in chemistry at Chapman College in Orange, Calif., under the Marine Corps degree completion program. e is currently working towards a Master’sdegree in system management at the University of Southern California and is a member of the Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity -- Los Angeles Alumni Chapter. He was assigned as data processing officer for the 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing at El Toro in 1967 and for the 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing at Cherry Point, N.C., as data systems officer in 1969. At willow Grove, Pa., he helped plan and conduct the training of reserve pilots in the F-8K Crusader and the A7M Skyhawk. In his last assignment as operations officer for Marine Aircraft Group 13, he watched over the activities of four jet squadrons, including about 50 aircraft and 1,500 men. There are under his present command 25 pilots, five aviation ground officers and 190 enlisted men. Lt. Col. Davis often encourages minority students to consider careers as Marine pilots. ‘ ‘The most important things,” he recommends to them in the way of preparation, “is getting enough math, English, and physical science. Desire is the next step. Then hould come a flight. Get into the air.” Davis believes there is no better way to become a pilot, get a college education and serve your country than by participating in the NROTC or Marine Corps Platoon Leader Class for Aviation programs. “The Marine Corps will even pay for you to go to private classes to get a civilian pilot’s license if you’re still in college and want to start flying before your Marine air training,” he says. “Marine recruiters and officer selection officers can provide further details of these programs,” he adds. His parents, Walter and Lillius Davis, live in San Francisco. He has two children, Tyra and Ronald, who are 16 and 15, respectively.
