Sgt. Frederick Graham, heavy equipment engineer maintenance chief, Organic Maintenance Unit, Marine Corps Logistics Command, removes reusable parts from scrapped equipment for shipment to installations around the Marine Corps. Graham said some of the parts may be requested for use by other branches of service as well. The sergeant, who was recently selected as LOGCOM’s Noncommissioned Officer of the Quarter, said one of the highlights of his military career was meeting one of the original Montford Point Marines, Henry L. Jackson, a World War II veteran and retired U.S. Air Force master sergeant. Jackson, a Congressional Gold Medal recipient, was one of the 20,000 African-American Marines to attend basic training at Montford Point, North Carolina, between 1942 and 1949.
