3YHC is likely the only guy in the region that was raised by the WW II generation (expect a lot of the pax’s grandads were) so this was a very special day. I grew up listening to these guys tell about it (mostly pretty funny stories) and had an uncle that was the REAL DEAL when it came to war heros in my uncle Roy Fortner who led the 15th Air Force Mission over Berlin…

5Thanks for the opportunity to Lead, we had 11 with 7 MOD and 4 Life Preservers! I started off with disclaimer which was very short since all were veterans of F3! I asked each guy to only think of positive thoughts and share about each of the following: Wife, any relative, and Finally their Mom. We each took a turn between each rep to talk about the Positive we see in each of them. Good…
1I had the honor to Q the final workout at the original Black Flag AO at Good Samaritan Church. The site Q Shades and the SLT decided to move it going forward to the excellent Field Day Park in Paddler’s Cove, like The Brig AO. I heard a few men might be running a little before the main event so I showed up 30 minutes early and was happy to see the running was already…
