Dignitary: Barrington Irving, Aviator

Barrington Irving has earned the right to be featured as our first dignitary. At 23 years old, he has already made history and has created what many are calling two world records, by being the youngest person ever to fly solo around the world, and the first African American to do so.

But for us, Barrington is a lot more than two world records. He is a symbol of pride and success. He had a dream. He was very dedicated to his dream. And he had the discipline and determination to see his dream come through.

Of course, we all can't be Barrington, but we can all learn something from him.

Congratulations, Dignitary.
