Sgt. Bill French will receive the Congressional Gold Medal for his historic role as one of the original Montford Point Marines.
This is the highest civilian honor for one of the trailblazing African American recruits that trained in a segregated facility at Camp Lejuene, NC between 1942-1949.
Powering through prejudice and with courage and determination, Sgt. French and the other Montford Point Marines served our country with pride and unbridled patriotism.
Help us honor this LEGEND OF THE CORPS.
