Lt. Melvin Spence Dry, today 6/6/2022 marks the 50th anniversary of that fateful night that you were killed doing what you were trained to. You and your team were committed to your mission no matter what the cost. I being a Navy vietnam veteran honor you for your great sacrifice for this country's freedom. It breaks my heart that you were not able to live out your life, the world would of been better with your presence here. RIP and see you in heaven shortly.

Thank you for your service to our country so long ago sir. The remembrance from fellow Naval Academy graduate Bruce Harrison is moving. As long as you are remembered you will always be with us.
