Description:
Cmdr. Bobby Wilks at the controls of a Coast Guard rotary-wing aircraft. U.S. Coast Guard Collection.
In the United States Coast Guard, there are thousands of highly motivated men and women doing extraordinary things. This kind of individual has helped steer the service throughout its 225-year history. The model example of such a Coast Guardsman was Bobby Charles Wilks, an African-American who led the Coast Guard toward greater diversity in the post-World War II era by breaking color barriers for African-American Coast Guard officers and blazing a trail for all minorities in the service.
Written by William Thiesen United States Coast Guard Historian
