My father, Jacob R. Miles Jr, was and is the best father in the world. He taught me how to be a man and along with my mother, Eva Grace (Ellis) Miles how to love. He was an original member of the Original Black Panthers, the United States Army, 761st Tank Battalion, America's first African-American tank battalion that served under General Patton. His father, my grandfather, Jacob R Miles Sr., was an extraordinary entrepreneur in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, was married to Ludie (Reed) Miles, (remarried as Howard). He along with his brothers, Jesse and McClinton Miles worked together to build a network of small businesses that stretched from Alabama to Michigan
