In this gripping episode of The Forbidden Frequency, we uncover the extraordinary life of Sergeant Major Louis Roundtree—one of the most decorated Marines in U.S. history and a pioneer of military integration. From his early days training at the segregated Montford Point to acts of unmatched heroism in both the Korean and Vietnam Wars, Roundtree’s journey spans two brutal conflicts and the transformation of the Marine Corps itself.

Through vivid storytelling, we follow his rise from a young Black recruit in the Jim Crow South to a legendary Sergeant Major whose name now graces a building at Parris Island. With Silver Stars, Purple Hearts, and resilience that borders on mythic, Roundtree’s legacy is not just about valor—it’s about changing the face of American service.

Tune in for an unforgettable story of courage, survival, and quiet leadership that history nearly left behind.
