On this the 243rd birthday of the US Navy

[SlaterDoc]

I am reminded also of yesterday's anniversary of Oct 12, 2000 and the attack on USS Cole.

Then that reminded me of our loss of Captain Michael Eagan on November 10, 2015 who was involved in the investigation. Then, that reminded me of our loss of Dick Landgraff (Rusty) last July.

So, Happy Birthday, US Navy! And......Rest in peace, Captain and Rusty and all the sailors lost on USS Cole on that fateful day.
