Jim, you are now relieved from your watch. A job well done fellow USS Randolph sailor. We all are grateful for your stepping up to the plate when your country needed you the most. America thanks you for your service to our country in the defense of freedom. The Carrier Randolph is now on station preparing for your final journey. The final volley has sounded and taps is about to begin, ending a successful career as a nation´s defender. Smooth sailing shipmate.
