The world lost another hero on March 25, 2023 with the passing of LTJG Baird Harned, Navy WAVES Officer during WWII. She truly was a trailblazer who led the way for all of us to follow. I will forever be grateful for the time I spent with her, sharing stories, her sense of humor, her smile, her no nonsense attitude, her patriotism and love of family. Fair winds and following seas Ma´am.

I loved her.. I had the honor of taking care of her husband. When the Kentucky Derby was on she would turn his call light on and when I answered it, she would turn the light off and say " Let's watch the derby!" She was such fun! Sending prayers of comfort to her family and friends. She was a special lady.
