Retired Col. Richard Toliver graduated from Tuskegee Institute University in January 1963 with a Bachelor of Science degree in Mechanical Engineering. He learned from the Tuskegee Airmen, and proudly accepted their challenge to faithfully serve the nation as their “protégé.”

He began his Air Force career in February 1963 as a Project Engineer and completed pilot training in June 1965. He was one of the first five African American F-4 pilots to serve under the famed Tuskegee Airman General Daniel "Chappie" James.
