LCDR Reuben Keith Green (ret) from Florida talks about his book "Black Officer, White Navy" (2017).  It  is likely the first memoir of a Black naval officer who rose from high school dropout to unrestricted line officer in the post-Vietnam War era. The author's unique career path and insightful analysis of both his personal experiences and those of others in the military give a clear picture of what was happening both within and outside the Navy, and how the forces of discrimination and institutional denial and damage control efforts can make a career in the military fraught with obstacles, as well as opportunities, for a well-qualified minority of any gender, race, or ethnic origin.  He talks about what it was like to be a minority sailor or officer between 1975 and the mid-1990's. Great opportunities and great challenges are explained and explored by LCDR Green  with the host Jim Fausone.
