Congratulations to these 3 heroes from Rhode Island. Not only for living past 100 but I thank them for their service to our country.
I am a Navy veteran served in the Vietnam War, for 2 deployments with the Seabees out of Davisville. I also served on the USS WASP (CVS -18) out of Quonset Point before it was decommissioned in ’73.
My dad was a Coast Guardsman in WW2, stationed on a Long Island lifeboat station and as a guard on Ellis Island.
Take care my friends, and may you have many more birthdays, until we all meet again at that River that flows by the Throne of God.
