I agree. I grew up in Mobile. He spoke at my high school several times, relating the importance of freedom. Sad to see a giant like him pass on.
“We are honored to have the opportunity to serve our country under difficult circumstances. We are profoundly grateful to our Commander in Chief and to our nation for this day. God bless America.”
I cried like a baby when I heard him say those words and cried like a baby when I heard of his passing. A national hero in every sense of the world. And the Lord said, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! ........ Come and share your master’s happiness!’ RIP Admiral Jeremiah Denton, your sacrifices to this country will never be forgotten.
