Five black cadet candidates found racial slurs written on the message boards on their doors at the U.S. Air Force Academy Preparatory School this week, the Washington Post website reports today (October 3, 2017).
Security forces are looking into this matter, according to Lt. Col. Allen Herritage, a spokesman for the U.S. Air Force Academy.
The Air Force Times reported that a cadet candidate's mother posted a photo on social media of "the words 'go home nigger' written on the white board outside her son's room."
The mother added, "These young people are supposed to bond and protect each other and the country. Who would my son have to watch out for? The enemy or the enemy?"
