Throughout February, we will reveal amazing stories of service and sacrifice. This is not a futile attempt to encapsulate the African-American military experience, but to celebrate some of the stories that have made that experience what it is today.<br\/><br\/>Visit <b><a class=\"\" href=\"http:\/\/www.militarytimes.com\/blackhistory\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Link: null\">militarytimes.com\/blackhistory<\/a><\/b> to learn more about these and other men and women, past and present, who have made their mark on a timeline that dates back centuries:<br\/><br\/><b>Crispus Attucks<\/b>, who died in 1770 at the hands of British soldiers during a protest that would become known as the Boston Massacre. Some consider Attucks, a runaway slave, to be the first casualty of the Revolutionary War. <br\/><br\/><b>Dan Bullock<\/b>, the youngest American service member killed during the Vietnam War. Bullock enlisted at age 14 and was a 15-year-old Marine private first class in 1969 when his combat base near Da Nang came under attack. <br\/><br\/><b>Doris Miller<\/b>, who earned a Navy Cross for his actions during the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor and was later killed in action while serving on an escort carrier that was sunk by a Japanese submarine.<br\/><br\/><b>Melvin Morri<\/b>s, a Green Beret whose heroism in Vietnam earned him the Distinguished Service Cross. After a review of his actions in 2002, his award was one of two dozen upgraded to the Medal of Honor. <br\/><br\/><b>Jackie Robinson<\/b>, who broke baseball&#8217;s color barrier \u2026 but not before a brush with military justice in Texas.<br\/><br\/><b>Larry Spencer<\/b>, whose Air Force career spanned more than 40 years and took him through the enlisted ranks to the role of service vice chief. <br\/><br\/><b>Cathay Williams,<\/b> who in 1866 became the first African-American woman to enlist in the Army by telling her recruiter she was a man named William Cathay.<br\/><br\/>Military
