The bugle has sounded and taps is about to play. The carrier has turned into the wind for your final launch. A job well done fellow Navy Veteran. America thanks you for your service to our country in the defense of freedom. Your seabag is packed and ready for last deployment. Smooth sailing fellow shipmate. A Navy Vietnam Veteran.
