I just got my first one ever from a former Navy man who is the son of a deceased fleet Captain (USN, Ret.) who married us ten years ago. Yes, we went to the burial at Annapolis and his dear wife of 63 years got to meet the Secretary of the Navy.
I called the Coast Guard on themselves. There was a ship burning at sea and I called it in. Yesterday they had impressive exercises with ships and helicopters right offshore. I did not call it in because evidently it was an exercise.
AJ II taught AJ III well, plus his brothers and me, their unofficial sister after 18 years with the family. It is an honor to hear Bravo Zulu for my heads-up effort to save a ship a few miles off shore that was on fire. Little did I know that it was a Coast Guard exercise. I’m sure “mom” will get a chuckle out of that.
Perhaps residents with a birds’ eye view of the lake that sunk the Edmund Fitzgerald know that we’re looking out and will call for help if needed, and thank you USCG! And Navy, Marines and all y’all who allow us to live free and safe. Dee
