Brashear Class #: 10560 Name: Brandt Reints Grade Completed: 9th grade Club: East Butler Ramblers Years in 4-H: 5 years Year in project: 1 year All Non Livestock projects will need to have the following goals filled out: Member’s goal(s) for the project? My goal was to use a piece that I worked very hard on for a school project and turn it into a pro- ject for 4-H. I learned so much about Carl M. Brashear, that I wanted to continue to share the information that I learned while researching him and representing him in my project. What steps did you take to achieve your goal? This project started as a World History Project for National History Day. I took my project to the district competition in Waterloo in March and received first place in the Five Sullivan Brothers District for Senior Individual Project. I then advanced to the State competition which was supposed to be held in Des Moines in May but due to Covid-19 I did an online presentation. I did not advance to Nationals which will be held virtually in July. 1. First, I decided how I wanted to take what I had and turn it into a condensed version my World History project. 2. I decided that I would use the header board with the title of the presentation. “Diving Past Barriers-Carl M. Brashear” 3. I took the wooden crate and attached the header to the top. 4. I then attached the prosthetic leg to the edge of the header board and to the side of the wooden crate. 5. I then added the Naval hat, the rope, and the diving helmet. 6. I then used some of my information and printed it off so I could make a small dis play inside of the crate by the helmet. 7. Finally, I made sure that everything was secure by using hot glue and some additional rope to make everything sturdy for travel and transport. What were the most important things you learned while working towards your goal? What I learned through this project is not something that I can put into words. I learned about racism and discrimination but I also learned about self-image, perseverance, goal setting, achieving dreams, being determined, and being a role model. Even with many barriers, Carl M. Brashear fought hard to achieve his dreams and he let nothing stand in his way. Financial Summary of Project (Remember, things out of your cupboard do cost someone something!) INGREDIENT/ITEM: COST: I used materials that I all ready had from a school project. Project Total: (IF APPLICABLE TO PROJECT) Gross Income Totals: Minus Expense Totals: Net Income: Cost to buy: ________ Cost to make: ________ Total Saved: ________ The above cost summary is not required for Non Livestock projects but we highly suggest it so you will have a complete picture of how much your completed project cost. Also, judges like seeing this cost summary. Photos of your project before, during and after will also add to your write up but are not required. Diving Past Barriers: Carl M. Brashear Brandt Reints Senior Individual Exhibit Student composed word count on Exhibit: 304 Student composed word count on Process Paper: 500 Student composed Annotated Bibliography I wanted to do my project on a person that had an impact on the United States. So, I started out looking up people that had a historical impact. That is where I found Carl Maxie Brashear. I knew nothing about him and what he did so that is when I researched the things that he did and what Impact he had. I found that he was the first African-American Master Diver and amputee to be back to active duty in the U.S. Navy. After I found out what he did and the jobs that he had, I began to write an annotated bibliography so I could keep track of my sources. I cited my sources and then began to write down the information from the site under the source. I continued to do more research and to learn more about him. Then I watched the movie “Men of Honor '', a movie about his life and what he had to do to get into the Navy, how he overcame racism and discrimination, how he became a Master Diver, and finally, how he became an amputee. The movie showed me a visual to all of the things that I had been learning before. I felt confident that the movie was accurate because Carl Brashear was on the set of the movie while it was being made .I worked on the annotated bibliography until I got it finished and cited correctly. For this project I decided to do an individual exhibit. After finding all of the research, I printed out all of my quotes and my pictures. I then had to figure out how I wanted to crop the pictures. After all of the pictures were printed out and the quotes resized, I then put the background on them to make them pop more on my board. Next I put the background on my display board using thin paper and spray glue. I then worked on the heading, which I put the words on and decorated to go with my Naval theme. I also included a diving helmet, a Navy hat, and a prosthetic leg which I made from a pool noodle, a Pringles can, tape, and receiving blankets. My topic is relatable to the topic of “Breaking Barriers” because Carl Brashear broke the racial barriers by becoming the first African-American Master Diver. He suffered through racism, discrimination, and threats. He was also the first amputee to be released back to the full, active military duty after he struggled with healing following an accident which severed his left leg. He broke the barrier of being the first amputee to dive and be sent back to active duty. It is also important to the world. He did things others wouldn't. He crushed the barriers and everyone should learn about what he did, and crush more barriers. Annotated Bibliography Primary Sources Bibliography, ​ http://honorbrashear.com/Pages/bibliography.html The source was a bunch of quotes that came from the crew that he had, the people that he met, and others that talked to him. There were also newspaper articles that had him talking in it and much more primary quotes too. It was quotes from podcasts, newspapers, and from the people that he knew. Horvath, Damien, and Fleet Public Affairs Center. “USNS Carl Brashear Christened.” USNS ​ Carl Brashear Christened, 19 Sept. 2008, www.navy.mil/submit/display.asp?story_id=39858. ​ This source is reliable to me because it tells me that after his death, the US Navy named an Lewis and Clark-class of dry cargo/ammunition ship after him. This source is about the naming of the USNS Carl Brashear (T-AKE 7), the ammunition ship named after him. It also has one of his boatmate and officer talking about him and what he did. I plan to use this source to tell about what happened after his death and how the Navy dealt with it. “Men of Honor.” The Movie “Men of Honor '' to the entire story about Carl from start to finish. This is a primary source because he helped make the movie and what happened. They had to use history to make the movie but he was there and told what happened in his eyes. “Oral History: Brashear, Carl M., Master Chief Boatswain's Mate, USN (Ret.).” U.S. Naval ​ Institute, 25 June 2019, www.usni.org/press/oral-histories/brashear-carl ​ This was a podcast from Carl. This is reliable because it was him talking but how he lost his leg. It is him talking about it to a reporter from the US Naval Institute. This source was Carl talking about how he lost his leg. He lost his leg to a pipe that broke when trying to recover the bomb. I plan to use this site as mostly quotes because it was him talking to another person. “Overcoming Hurdles – The Legacy of Master Chief Carl Brashear.” The Sextant, 16 Jan. 2018, ​ ​ https://usnhistory.navylive.dodlive.mil/2018/01/16/overcoming-hurdles-the-legacy-of-master-chi ef-carl-brashear/ Phillip Brashear is the son of Carl Brashear. This is a reliable source because Phillip Brashear is the son of Carl and he went through his life as his son. He talked about him and what he did . He talked about and described his father in great detail. I will be using this source to put more quotes onto the exhibit. It told me alot about Carl through the eyes of his son. Secondary Sources ARTICLE: Pioneering Navy Diver Carl Brashear Dies in Portsmouth (The Virginian-Pilot - HamptonRoads.com/PilotOnline.com), ​ He was born in Kentucky in 1931. Brashear was aboard when a stern mooring line of a ​ landing craft pulled a steel pipe out of the salvage ship’s deck. As the pipe flew across the deck Brashear pushed another sailor out of the way, but the pipe struck Brashear’s left leg.“I can’t be tied that long,” he is quoted as saying in the interview.

  • Carl Brashear (US Navy) and Phillip Brashear (USN, US Army)
    Men of Honor – Carl Brashear (US Navy) and Phillip Brashear (USN, US Army) By Gary Lehman Man of Honor: Carl Brashear Dive News Network (DNN) caught up to Carl Brashear’s son Phillip in Richmond, Virginia to talk about the Carl Brashear Foundation and about his father’s US Navy career, his life and times and achievements. Some of our readers have seen and will remember the fine film Men Of Honor (2000) starring Cuba Gooding as Seaman (ultimately Master Chief Petty Officer and Master Diver) Carl Brashear, with Robert De Niro as his antagonist-turned champion Master Chief Bill Sunday, and actress Aunjanue Ellis as Carl’s wife Junetta Brashear. The film did an exemplary job portraying the inspiring life of Master Diver Brashear. And what an exalted life -- shimmering with achieving full human potential and the triumph of the human spirit! It will be a singular privilege in this article to recount Carl’s life and journey. We can all draw inspiration from Carl Brashear, his intrepid determination and ultimate success in the face of multiple, overwhelming odds. His life offers a lighted pathway for us to pursue our personal commitment to achieve maximum potential in our own lives. Haze Gray and UNDERWAY! Carl’s historic life achievement was to become the US Navy’s first African- American Master Diver, first to earn the rank of Master Chief Petty Officer -- the highest enlisted sailor position in the United States Navy. Only one percent of all enlisted sailors ever reach this pinnacle of US Navy ratings. From Rural Kentucky to the US Navy Carl was born a sharecropper’s son in rural Kentucky in 1931 at the height of the Depression, and joined the US Navy in 1948 at age 17 at the insistence of his parents.
