Dear Military Veterans,

In honor of the Navy's special anniversary, I would like to create a table of military service for those who served in the Navy and want to be included. 

Please look at part of a table below which I have provided as an example, and see what I have in mind. I'm open to suggestions, but this table is a quick way to get started.

If you would like to be added to the table, have a look  at the format I've created and repy on this thread to have your name added. Once I get the names, I can post the completed table in a comment at the bottom of this thread, which you can link for later reference.

I could add the other military branches too, but I would like to honor the Navy's special day, and having this thread be Navy-only would help. Once I complete the Navy table, I can post a new thread and invite another branch, complete their table, then another branch etc. I would like to create a master table of all military who wish to share so that all user names would appear in alphabetical order and be easier to reference regardless of branch of military service.

If there's no interest in this table, please accept my gratitude for your service. THANK YOU!

“On a quiet weekend night, I’ll confess what fuels me: the voices of veterans reaching out in my DMs, I’m a disabled woman untouched by the world’s brutality. But it’s a different weight altogether to hear from resilient men—heroes who gave their bodies to wars built on lies. Their sacrifices ignite me, drives me to speak out against the senseless violence they endured and to honor them by fighting for peace.”
