April 5th is Colin Powell Day!!!


April 5th is Colin Powell Day!!! 

No matter what you think of Colin Powell for his past or his politics, this man is definitely someone to be celebrated and remembered. Not only was he a 4-star General in the United States Army, but he also was the first African-American appointed as the U.S. Secretary of State, and the first, and so far the only, to serve on the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Since retiring from both the Military and politics he has still been active and influential. Thank you Mr. Powell for all of your contributions and inspiration!

"Great leaders are almost always great simplifiers, who can cut through argument, debate and doubt, to offer a solution everybody can understand." - Colin Powell
