THANKS FOR YOUR SERVICE

I'm going to break away from swimming briefly for something more important.

Today marks the 68th anniversary of the attacks on Pearl Harbor. More than 2,000 American soldiers and sailors died, many more were wounded. I've had the honor of meeting and interviewing several Pearl Harbor survivors during my journalism career, and I just want to say a heartfelt, personal thank you to each and everyone of you.

The sacrifices made by you and your brothers in arms nearly 70 years ago are a debt a grateful nation can never fully repay. But I know I'm not alone in honoring your service, and believing that you are ALL heroes.

God bless you all!
