The military began to fully integrate way before anything IMHO


RQ can say they did a bad job along the way and could have been quicker, but I disagree.

Hopewell Virginia city schools were not integrated until early seventies (i.e. I think 1972), and the military was slowly progressing for decades before that.

It is hard to be the first at anything, but I feel the Military was one of the first, if not the first.
