TBT 2007. As a blueshirt in the Navy, I worked my ass off to earn the trust of my CO to steer and navigate our ship into KNB harbor. Docking her at the berth was a smooth operation. Once the evolution was completed, I walked off my last Navy ship and  combat zone tour to retire. Thank you, Captain N., for your trust and guidance!

"I can imagine no more rewarding career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worth while, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction: 'I served in the United States Navy'".
