African American History Month: Honoring Former Veterans Advantage Member Bill Holloman

We hope you enjoy reading our profile of William "Bill" Holloman, a former Veterans Advantage member. Bill passed away a few years after we originally worked with him on the piece, but his legacy is alive and well today. As one of the famed Tuskegee Airmen, he helped pioneer the way for millions of African Americans who served our nation with honor. "We were the forerunners of the civil rights movement. We opened the door…and it has taken years for people to recognize our contribution to the war," he once said. MORE.
