Interdenominational service celebrates Black History Month


Cpt. David Knodel, Chaplain for the Delaware Air National Guard, leads an interdenominational worship service held to celebrate Black History Month.

"Let us all hope that the dark clouds of racial prejudice will soon pass away, and the deep fog of misunderstanding will be lifted from our fear drenched communities, and in some not too distant tomorrow the radiant stars of love and brotherhood will shine over our great nation with all their scintillating beauty."

Martin Luther King, Jr. 1963

By Major Cheryl Wilson, Social Actions Officer, 166 Airlift Wing
