Today, the Navy Supply Corps School proudly observed Native American Heritage Month with a special event hosted by our Heritage Committee. The presentation highlighted the rich history, enduring resilience and significant contributions of Native Americans to our nation and military. From the pivotal role of the Navajo Code Talkers in securing victory during WWII to the remarkable statistic that Native Americans serve in the military at the highest per capita rate of any ethnicity (1.7%), their legacy of service runs deep. To date, 27 Native Americans have been awarded the Medal of Honor for extraordinary acts of valor. ENS Ross Bolin, a proud member of The Chickasaw Nation and a student here at the schoolhouse, shared a summary of his tribe’s heritage and history, which added a personal and inspiring touch to the event. We honor and thank Native Americans for their invaluable contributions to our Navy, military and nation. #NativeAmericanHeritageMonth #USNavy #LeadershipThroughHeritage #whatrightlookslike
