A 1914 graduate of West Point, John Markoe was a gridiron hero who played against the likes of Jim Thorpe. He was a dashing, highly regarded cavalry officer-Dwight Eisenhower called him the best potential officer he'd ever seen-whose brief military career ended in shame and scandal. He was a Jesuit priest for fifty years and an alcoholic for fifty-seven. And for five decades he was a pioneering battler for racial equality, combining Jesuit spirituality with his military training as he worked in cities like St. Louis and Omaha to improve opportunities for African-Americans while striving to convince white Americans that racism was a sin.
