Get To Know The Wilmington Buffalo Soldiers Motorcycle Club

Pvt. Leroy McAllister  

 

Mr. McAllister is a pioneer and one of the original Buffalo Soldiers.  He is not only a leader as a soldier but as well as in his personal life, becoming the first person in his family to finish college.  During his time within the Army he encountered many trials and tribulations.  While serving in Italy he experienced two memorable encounters. The first where he had to be resourceful and find shelter within a bunker during a severe snow storm lasting 4 days. This left him blind as a result of snow glare. Another event, a “live mortar round” landed near him with the impact totally covering him with dirt, however it did not explode. He saw this as a sign that the Mighty Hand of God spared his life.
