Ten years into his 24-year US Army career, First Sergeant Lee N. Coffee Jr. assumed a carefully researched living history interpretive role as a 9th Cavalry Buffalo Soldier, Sgt. Emanuel Stance, a Medal of Honor recipient during the Indian Wars campaign in the 1870s.

As a historian and professional speaker, Lee has won awards for over thirteen years, leading week-long Heritage Intervention Programs titled La Salida (The Way Out), Buffalo Soldier Heritage Intervention, The Vaquero Heritage Intervention, and oversaw Old Stories: New Voices. Each multicultural program challenges young (7-12 y.o.) African Americans, Mexican Americans, and Anglo Americans to stay away from gangs and drugs and pursue an education.

He shares his unique journey on this week’s Reflections on Interpretation with Bill Gwaltney and Tim Merriman.
