I visited the USS Intrepid today. Quite impressive overall, but just as I was about to get in the elevator I saw a VIP bus pull over. When I got out of the elevator to the flight deck I ran into Navajo Code Talkers flanked by security and Marines in dress uniforms. Although I only caught a glimpse of these men, I was highly impressed and found myself shaking a few moments later. This is a moment I will always remember. |

Way to go Patrick. Your timing was superb. |

There was an article today in the news on yahoo about the Navajo Code Talkers and how they are attending, (finally) the Vets services, and it mentioned a special service and tour of the Intrepid for them, so you got a chance to see something special. Good for you! |
