Willie Gore grew up in southeastern North Carolina at a time when many young African American men were steered toward trades, but with the support of family and mentors he set his sights on college and a biology degree. Those plans shifted when the Vietnam War intervened, and after earning his degree and an ROTC commission, he entered the U.S. Army, led troops in intense jungle combat, was seriously wounded, and received the Purple Heart.

His military career carried him around the world—from Vietnam to Hawaii, Canada, and the Pentagon—and his story reflects a soldier, husband, and father whose steady faith guided him through every chapter.

From February 2 - 21, 1865, elements of the Union and Confederate armies fought the Battle of Forks Road for control of Wilmington, North Carolina—the South’s principal seaport and most important city.  Confederate forces under Maj. Gen. Robert F. Hoke made a final attempt to halt the determined Federal advance. On the Union side, United States Colored Troops led by Brig. Gen. Charles J. Paine served as the principal combatants. The battle’s outcome would determine control of Wilmington, the Cape Fear River, and three railroads, all of which were vital to the final military operations in North Carolina during the Civil War.

Robert Allen Potter, born in 1945 at Dosher Hospital in Southport, grew up in a long‑rooted Southport fishing family, spending his early years working alongside his father and relatives on the Frying Pan Shoals and Cape Fear River while developing a deep love for art that followed him through school, Navy service, and decades of maritime work. After returning home, he continued a lifetime of service on the water and in the arts—volunteering for community productions, painting the Southport of his childhood, publishing family history with his wife Jeanne, and dedicating his talent to preserving the stories and spirit of the quiet fishing village that shaped him.
