My Dorie Miller Experience

Mr. Miller was the first and only to receive the Navy Cross. Also, the only African American to receive that award. In his picture that states "above and beyond the call of duty". I think it means he went all out for his job. He did more more than anybody ever done. He couldn't be in the Navy just yet, he was a cook. He was a cook because all African Americans couldn't do what the whites did. Some blacks well African Americans were Mess Attendants. The Navy Cross was the second highest from the honorable award. Dorie received the Navy Cross in May 27, 1942. Dorie was born in1919. He died in 1943. The man that awarded him with Navy Cross was Mr.Roosevelt. Frank Knox that was called "top dog"who put the award on Mr. Miller's uniform. The ship that Dorie Miller died on the U.S.S Liscomb Bay. The U.S.S West Virginia was the shop when he was brave an shot the Japanese ship to save his co-worker. In December 7,1941 was when he was in Pearl Harbor bombing. The portrait of Dorie Miller was made by David Stone Martin, in 1943.

Twettie Tiff

Hola.!!!!!

This is Tiffani here with you on this blogging page. I am 12 years old and attend school in the District of Columbia. I enjoy excessive amounts of activities such as Track, Volleyball, Step/Dance (at Dance Place), Basketball and much more.I am captain of both the volleyball and track team and hoping to become the captain of the basketball team. As you have read I'm very athletic but you haven't herd about my academics yet. Maintaining an grade point average of 3.6 or higher yes I still have the time to do my homework after every day of coming from practice. A person who inspires me to keep going is my father because he compliments me on everything that i do but he doesn't criticise, he only makes suggestions to help me with anything needed. Like for instincts this summer I was in the Junior Olympics for Track and Field and made it to the regionals, which was a great experience. Later in life I hope to be a track star and to be in the Diamond League. Well I hope you enjoyed this and will talk to you soon.
