| Answer: Dear Stephen, I have a lot of respect for airdales. I never got an appreciation for how hard they worked until I spent 2 weeks aboard a carrier. Thanks for your service, and for the kind remarks. I didn’t retire, but my hat is off to those of you who did. I did 7 years active and 3 more in the reserves. Thanks again and God Bless! – V/R RCC |
