This is an historic interview! It's a wonderful and especially rare opportunity for anyone to learn history from someone who was "up close and personal"; with WWII, racial segregation and the transition of many generations of Americans.

Brigadier General McGee served in WWII, The Korean War and Vietnam War, accumulating an astounding 409 combat missions. His civilian service is marked by extensive honors including the nation’s highest civilian award, The Congressional Gold Medal. Today, at age 100, he remains an active role model to youth, promoting his mantra of personal success, “Perceive, Prepare, Perform and Persevere.”Brigadier General Charles McGee, age 100 - White House PhotoThe live interview is FREE TO THE PUBLIC with special emphasis on encouraging teachers and group leaders to tune-in.
