Gen. Charles Q. Brown, Jr., has made history by becoming the first African American to lead a U.S. military service. The Senate unanimously confirmed the four-star general as the U.S. Air Force's chief of staff.
"I'm thinking about wearing the same flight suit with the same wings on my chest as my peers and then being questioned by another military member, 'Are you a pilot?'"Brown said.
"I can't fix centuries of racism in our country, nor can I fix decades of discrimination that may have impacted members of our Air Force," Brown said.
