My Memoirs by Walter R Somerville Jr

Walter R. Somerville Jr. did not let growing up relatively poor prevent him from becoming assistant commandant for civil rights in the United States Coast Guard. In his fifty-four years of public service, he supported a Coast Guard culture that values diversity, a twenty-first century recruiting initiative, the creation of the Coast Guard JROTC program, and other initiatives. He is a graduate of the University of Maryland University College and a program for senior managers in government at the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University.
