Dear Driskells: My son, Graham, was in a helicopter detachment aboard the USS George H.W. Bush aircraft carrier. I wonder if Lt. Matt every landed on deck? Matt: What a dynamic young man, loyal son and sibling, US Naval Academy Graduate and in dedicated service to his country. I deeply sympathize with his passing. Regards, Dale

Dear Driskell family: So sorry to hear about LT. Driskell. Whenever I seen his Mom, Gretchen, always asked how the United States Naval Officer was doing. Upon his graduation from the Naval Academy I asked his Mom to give him one of our local Vietnam Veterans chapter challenge coins & wish him well. Fair winds and following seas Lt.
