SHA PTA' - Fantastic Fellas Friday - 1st Black Secretary of Defense Lloyd J. Austin, III
EPISODE #79 - This Fantastic Fellas Friday – We celebrate 4-STAR General, now Secretary of Defense Lloyd J. Austin, III. In honor of Black History Month, we honor the First African American Secretary of Defense. Here is his military history: Years of service: 1975–2016, Battles/Wars: War in Afghanistan; Iraq War, Awards: Combat Action Badge, Expert Infantryman Badge, Education: Auburn University, United States Military Academy at West Point, N.Y., Austin served 41 years in uniform, retiring as a four-star Army general after three years as commander of U.S. Central Command. previously served as the 12th commander of United States Central Command from 2013 to 2016. He retired United States Army four-star general and now the 28th secretary of defense, sworn in on Jan. 22, 2021. I am sad that his speech in 2010 as he becomes Commander in Iraq can be said to America in 2021 addressing fair elections, insurgents (which what happened January 6, 2021 at the Capitol in America), and racism and extremists in the military.
