Jeff D. Hutchinson wasn't always a master chief of the United States Navy. He grew up in Atlanta, Georgia, not the Atlanta that we all know today. He grew up in segregated Atlanta, where being Black was frowned upon. He didn't allow racism to paralyze the ambition that was deeply rooted inside of him. He was always the last choice, never the first. Yet, he overcame those challenges and obstacles that made it extremely difficult to be a black man in the deep south. His parents educated him on how to survive the dark days of segregation. The advice of his parents proved to be rewarding for him because he listened and became the last man up when he wasn't supposed to be a choice. In spite of all the dark things taking place during that time, he continued to work hard, do his best in everything that he did, and most importantly, he learned from his mistakes and the mistakes of others.
