Legacy of a Black Army Chaplain

Serving thirty-five years in the Army is impressive, but doing it as a Black chaplain

starting in the 1890s is absolutely legendary. George Washington Prioleau was born

in Charleston right before the Civil War and defied every odd to become a spiritual leader

for the famous Buffalo Soldiers. He didn't just preach; he lived the grind with the 9th Cavalry,

constantly moving from fort to fort and sacrificing precious time with his own family to

support the troops. He proved that the strongest weapon in war is sometimes just having someone

there to listen, leaving a legacy of resilience that still matters today.
