    Marine Corps Air Station Miramar

    African-American recruits maneuver through an obstacle course during Marine Corps recruit training in the mid-1940s aboard Montford Point now Marine Corps Base Camp Johnson, N.C. The Montford Point Marines were the first African Americans in the Marine Corps and helped pave the way for the Marine Corps to become the racially non-biased fighting force it is today.
