  • The proudest i had ever been to have the last name Treon is when your grandfather first told me the story of his bus ride down to boot camp
  • When he got on the bus the only people were three black men, my dad never found out if they knew each other or not.
  • There was not a lot of talking, so it was a very long drive down to the base in Texas.
  • Along the way the bus stopped and picked up more men all of them, white
  • More and more men got on the only talking were the racial slurs coming from the hicks.
  • The last stop they made before they got to the base was a combined gas station and diner. All the men got up in to go to the bathroom
  • Your grandpa was near the back and he could hear the black men talking when he noticed it, there was a sign above the bathroom that said whites only.
  • He knew that this was wrong, that theses men were maybe giving up their life for these country bums to have their freedom but they could not use the bathroom.
