Mr. Latez,
Sir, I would just like to say thank you for your service and sacrifice for our Country when you served with the USCG in the Pacific during WW II fighting the Japanese and for being a member of the Greatest Generation. And to your family and loved ones, I wish to extend my deepest sympathy.

Semper Paratus!
