My whole family was Navy. Dad retired in 1963 with 26 yrs. active as a ADJC then served 4 years in the inactive reserve for a total of 30 yrs. My middle brother served a hitch during Viet Nam and I did a hitch during the Cold War. Had an Uncle and a Cousin both retire as Lt. Commanders. My cousin was a "Mustang". Worked his way up. We are a Proud Navy Family.
