July 4th 1991, I was sitting on the flight deck of my ship in the middle of the Persian Gulf just wishing I could be home for a few hours to take in the festivities around the lake, and most of all have a real cheese burger and a couple dogs fresh off the grill with all the toppings, oh and some ice cold water melon.
To Captain Scott Warnke, I salute you sir for your service and to all those who are active duty or prior service. Most of all to those who paid the ultimate sacrifice so that we can enjoy all that we have today, a debt we can never repay, thank you!
Happy Independence Day everyone and we'll see you out on the lake!
