Default Doolittle Raider Passes

I just heard that Major Thomas Griffin passed away Tuesday, 3/6/13. Here's a link to the story. I will be flying my flag tomorrow in his honor. Rest my friend, and thank you.

The Greatest Generation. One of the examples, Major Griffin.

REQUIEM
by: Robert Louis Stevenson

UNDER the wide and starry sky,
Dig the grave and let me lie.
Glad did I live and gladly die,
And I laid me down with a will.

This be the verse you grave for me:
Here he lies where he longed to be;
Home is the sailor, home from the sea,
And the hunter home from the hill.


Rest in peace.
