honoring you....

War drew us from our homeland
In the sunlit springtime of our youth.
Those who did not come back alive remain
in perpetual springtime -- forever young --
And a part of them is with us always.

Thank You

Dear SA Richard Tessman, Thank you for your service as a Seaman Apprentice on the USS NEWPORT NEWS. Saying thank you isn't enough, but it is from the heart. Independence Day just passed. Time passes quickly. Please watch over America, it still needs your strength, courage, guidance and faithfulness, especially now. Rest in peace with the angels.

U died 4 months into your 19th Birthday. Thinking of you today on your birthday. I was there when you died. I hope you & the other 21 guys that died during that deployment are all having a beer today in your honor. RIP.

Happy 68th Birthday Richard

You lost your life as a 19 year old man. You could not legally buy yourself a beer in America. But you could die for an ungrateful nation. I hope you & the other 21 guys get together for a beer in heaven. I think about that time in our lives often. RIP Richard.
