Happy 248th Birthday To The U.S. Navy

Happy 248^th birthday to the United States Navy. 

I served in the Navy on the aircraft carrier USS Kitty Hawk during the Vietnam War in 1970-1971. 

I also served on the USS Saugus, a Navy harbor tugboat, at the U.S. nuclear submarine base at Holy Loch, Scotland in 1974-1975. 

My late father served as a Chief Underwater Demolition Team (UDT) frogman in WWII.
