Small business owner and author Dr. Burl Randolph Jr. says he knew his time in the military was different too.
"When I was first on active duty, I had a Lieutenant Colonel who told me there's certain differences (so) you have to be better, faster, stronger like the 'Six Million Dollar Man,'" Dr. Randolph said.
He retired as an Army Colonel in 2014, after serving more than 30 years and three combat tours in Iraq. His success came with lessons, as he sometimes found himself to be the only Black officer in a unit.
"When they say 'It gets lonely at the top,' yeah, because there's less and less African-Americans." Dr. Randolph. said.
It's his passion for service that kept him going and brought him to his career now, creating My Wingman LLC and coaching leaders.
Captain Burl Randolph, Jr., US Army in 1990 deployed to Saudi Arabia for Operation Desert Storm.
