These pages are dedicated to our departed shipmates and all those who have given the "last full measure of devotion." It has been said that "Freedom must be nourished by the blood of patriots." No other nation on earth has striven more valiantly to ensure the freedom of its citizens or that of other oppressed peoples. It is the responsibility of the living to remember the sacrifices of the fallen and to ensure that their sacrifice was not in vain. To that end, may we all cherish the memories of those comrades and keep the faith they fought and died for, through maintenance of our most honored and cherished traditions. (Background music: Star Spangled Banner)
