    Retired Lt. Gen. Arthur J. Gregg enthusiastically thanks all those present for the ceremony and all supporting the renaming efforts following a sign unveiling April 19 at the newly named Gregg-Adams Club. Formerly the Lee Club, the facility was off limits to Gregg and his fellow Black Soldiers when he became an officer in 1950. Gregg shares the new name with Lt. Col. Charity Adams, who commanded a postal unit in an overseas theater of operations during World War II.
