Kelley Bell, one of the two Excellence in Leadership Award recipients, and her parents pose for a photo with Sgt. Maj. Michael Logan, the Marine Corps Recruiting Command Sergeant Major, during the 40th Annual National Society of Black Engineers at the Gaylord Opryland Resort and Convention Center in Nashville, Tenn., March 28, 2014. The National Society of Black Engineers, founded in 1971, increased the number of culturally responsible black engineers who excel academically and positively impact the community. This is the fourth year the Marine Corps has partnered with NSBE. The United States Marine Corps also recognizes this event as a valuable opportunity to foster positive relationships with members, share the Marine story, demonstrate enthusiasm for the Corps and reinforce the idea of the armed services as a viable career option within the African American Community. There are currently 21,000 African American men and women serving in the United States Marine Corps, making up approximately 10% of the force. (Photo by Lance Cpl. Stanley Cao)
