LOL!!! I was also in the US Navy as a Nurse in Vietnam. We got to get enough back up and support from the People, before Obama is tossed out. We can't trust Congress, because Obama has them wrapped around his fingers. The US Senate is lolly gagging around and taking their sweet time, because they are afraid of what Obama might do and don't want a fight on their hands. This Government is scared of it's own shadow, and can't see the Light.


I second the motion, Thank you too for your service.

I too was in the Navy, and

The Secretary of the Navy takes pleasure in presenting the NAVY UNIT COMMEDATION MEDAL to

U.S. NAVAL BASE
GUANTANAMO BAY, CUBA

for service as set forth in the following

CITATION:

For exceptionally meritorious service in support of essential operations of utmost importance to the interests of the United States from 1 January 1991 to 30 June 1992. Naval Base, Guantanamo "professionalism" by thoroughly exceeding all mission requirements. Through initiative and perseverance, the staff of Guantanamo Bay, Cuba maintained their primary mission of supporting essential Atlantic Fleet readiness training to units of the United States and Humanitarian Relief Center for over 16,000 Haitian migrants following a c**p d'etat in Haiti and providing refugee assistance to deprivation in c*******t Cuba. Additionally, the Base provided U.S. Customs Service, Drug Enforcement Administration, and US Coast Guard, resulting in interdiction of over 50,000 pounds of marijuana; 260,000 kilos of cocaine; arrest of 57 drug runners; and the remoteness and isolated nature of duty on Guantanamo Bay, the Naval Base instituted Fleet Recreation Programs in support of Fleet units in training, an active youth program serving over 1,600 dependent youths, built a highly acclaimed Child Development Center, and requested and approved a new MAC passenger channel providing service to Jacksonville, Florida. By their exceptional vigilance, professionalism, and loyal dedication to duty, the officers and enlisted personnel of the Naval Base, Guantanamo Bay, Cuba reflected great credit upon themselves and upheld the highest traditions of the United States Naval Service.

Signed Secretary of the Navy"

br The Secretary of the Navy takes pleasure in pr... (show quote)


As a result of this commendation, I was awarded the Navy Unit Commendation Medal, as well as the Humanitarian Medal, and the Coast Guard SOS.

In addition to that commendation, I was awarded another commendation from the Admrial of the Atlantic Fleet for as they put it, "Staging, paletizing and uploading 210 tons of Cargo in seven days(with a crew of five people) on many C-5 aircraft, for the survivors of Hurricane Andrew that hit the Southern Louisiana and Florida areas."Towards the end of 1992, we scrambled again to provide, "sleigh" rides to all servicemembers so they could get home to their families.

So NAS Guantanamo Bay'91-93, and in '94--96 VAW 121, USS George Washington(CVN-73) and Arizona Army National Guard '01-'04.

and it is nice to see fellow veterans, and especially fellow, sailors on this site.

However, you are also 100% right about this administration, the Democrats and Republicans. Service like the above happens when airmen, sailors and soldiers, work together not because they have to but because they want to. And under the feeling of wanting to, this nation is great. Imagine, with a crew of five people, we uploaded six c five aircraft in less than seven days. Which means we recovered them, we unloaded supplies, we palletized the cargo, we loaded the cargo, and we launched the birds. And what is not mentioned is because of the way Leeward point of NAS, is set up, every third C-5 would break an engine, during this operation, and we had to work around these issues.

During the Bush Sr. administration we could accomplish anything. During the Clinton tyrannical administration and Obama's tyrannical administration under the umbrella of force, this is not possible. Therefore, I as one of many who was commended in 92, do agree with you.

And again thank you for your service.
