Clarence Samuels
Lieutenant Junior Grade Clarence Samuels (June 11, 1900 – 1983), was the first Hispanic American of African descent photographer in the United States Coast Guard, to command a cutter, as well as the first one to be a commanding officer of a Coast Guard vessel during wartime.
==Early years==
Samuels was born and raised in the village of Bohio, Panama. By 1920, he had immigrated to the United States and joined the United States Coast Guard as an alien (citizen of a foreign country). Samuels first assignment as a Seaman 2nd Class was aboard the USCGC Earp (ex-Eagle 22) at Balboa Canal Zone, Panama. The term "Hispanic", which according to the United States Census Bureau is an ethnic term used to categorize any citizen or resident of the United States, of any racial background, and of any religion, who has at least one ancestor from the people of Spain or any of the Spanish-speaking countries of the Americas,〔(Hispanic Population of the United States Current Population Survey Definition and Background ), United States Census Bureau, Population Division,
Ethnic & Hispanic Statistics Branch. Retrieved on August 24, 2007.〕 was not used until the 1970s, therefore Latinos were classified by race either as "Whites" or as "Blacks". Samuels was classified as Black by the US Coast Guard and like so many Blacks before and after him, he was soon initiated into mess-man duty.〔(LT Clarence Samuels, USCG (Ret.) )〕
