Happy Birthday US Navy! Today marks the 234th birthday of the finest Navy the world has ever known. If you haven’t ever looked into the history and heritage of your service, I strongly encourage you to do so. Yesterday’s Navy broke all the rules, won wars against overwhelming odds, and basically kicked butt and took names. Today’s Navy continues that proud tradition of fighting for causes as simple but important as protecting our way of life, of principle centered leadership (leadership by every individual that makes up the whole of the US Navy), and of innovation, dedication, and perseveration. These are all characteristics that make up the character of each and every warrior of EMFK. This command, and this US Navy, cannot win by relying only on its weapons, its policies, it's tactics. We can only win by the true inspired efforts of each of our warriors, pulling together for the common cause, and advancing the commands mission. Our warriors win the wars, and make the US Navy look good. And it's looking real good for 234 years of age.
Speaking of age, happy birthday to our October warriors: SK2 Adegoke October 3, HM2 Lucas October 3, LCDR Grothe October 5, CAPT McNeil October 5, HM2 Frutos October 10, HM2 Uzcategui October 10, HM2 Olivar October 13, HM1 Bonilla Ocotber 15, LTJG Boese October 17, LT Bailey October 18, HM2 Francisco October 25, HM3 Reid October 25, LCDR Laboy October 28, LT Robinson October 28, HM1 Bedard October 31.
I also want to congratulate our Sailors of the quarter, Blue Jacket of the Quarter, HN Bigley, Junior Sailor of the Quarter, HM2 Alonzolopez, and Senior Sailor of the Quarter, HM1 Jasper. The competition was fierce for this recognition, and the Chiefs mess was oozing blood as each LCPO fought for their warriors. Each candidate was exceptionally qualified, which makes it all the more significant for those that were selected. Please take the time to congratulate these outstanding warriors.
Things are looking good out here in the desert. We continue to provide the finest medical care available, and continue to work on improving everything we do. Again, many thanks to all of you for the support you give to the warriors of EMFK as they do their part in the War on Terror.
Till next time.
