Captain Donald Bolinger Ret.

"A sailor has passed away today." You failed to make your battle stations during general quarters. You are now relieved from your watch. A job well done fellow navy Vietnam Veteran. America thanks you for your service to our country in the defense of freedom and democracy. The carrier has turned into the wind preparing for your final departure. Taps is about to sound ending a successful career as a nation´s defender. Smooth sailing shipmate. A Navy Vietnam Veteran.
