A salute to all my fellow veterans here on BP.
This year is a sad one for me. My brother in law, Ken Rex, passed on this August. In 1952, Ken sailed on the destroyer Herbert J. Thompson, firing counter battery missions off the North Korean coast. For more than 30 years we would gather somewhere and tip back a bit of Woodford Reserve or Glenmorangi to celebrate. We made more than 20 trips to DC, stopping first at The Wall to honor my service, and then the Korean Memorial to honor his.
Taps will have a different sound to me tomorrow. Farewell Ken, Calm seas and following winds. Sail on.
