Today, as we observe Juneteenth, it's essential to recognize that this day is much more than just a day off. Juneteenth marks the liberation of the last enslaved African Americans in 1865, a pivotal moment in our nation's history. Celebrating Juneteenth involves more than acknowledging the past; it requires education, action, and meaningful celebration. Let’s take this opportunity to: - Educate: Learn about the significance of Juneteenth and the ongoing journey towards racial equity. - Act: Engage in conversations, support Black-owned businesses, and advocate for policies that promote justice and equality. - Celebrate: Honor the rich cultural heritage and achievements of Black Americans through festivities, art, and community events. Let’s commit to making Juneteenth a day of profound reflection and purposeful action, celebrating the progress made and recognizing the work still to be done. https://lnkd.in/edQvZC_8 #Juneteenth #Education #Action #Celebration #RacialEquity #BlackHistory

A worthy read on Marine Corps history.
From 20-23 November 1943 the Battle of Tarawa was waged. This pivotal island in the South Pacific marked the Marines first (seriously) opposed landing in the Pacific theater. On 21 November the Marines sustained casualty rates unfathomable in today’s era as they fought their way across the reef. The Japanese stated that it would take “one million men a hundred years to take the island.” In 76 hours the objective was complete. Today we paid homage to this era as we celebrated “Tarawa Day.” It’s a legacy to be proud of and a reason to always put one foot before the other - no matter the obstacle or opposition. #marines #history #legacy
