Want to know what it's like joining the military?
In That Time My Black A** Joined the Navy, Alexis takes us on that very journey.
She was just a young black girl from the South Side of Chicago, who at the end of the day couldn't afford her college tuition. In a last-ditch effort, she decided to join the United States Navy for a better life.
From there, we follow her being dropped off at bootcamp, up until her first deployment, and her eventual separation from the armed forces. This is a story for prospects, veterans, those still serving or those simply curious for a military story from the prospective of a black woman. In her own words, she explains...
Alexis C. Knighten is a Chicago native who's also a United States Navy veteran. She is a graduate of Tidewater Community College earning her Associates Degree in General Studies.
Inspired by the late great Maya Angelou, she has always had a passion for writing. She resides in Portsmouth, Virginia with her loving husband, daughter and two Siberian huskies.
