Hero retires from 28 years of military service



Our dear friend Paul retired from the USAF this month after 28 years of service to the USN and USAF.  His latest assignment with the Patrick H-60 rescue unit was filled with down range deployments to the war on terrorism in the Middle East.  He logged a remarkable 1500 hours of combat hours in close to 900 combat sorties, and earned an unbelievable 25 Air Medals.  Proud to be a friend of this U.S. Patriot.
