I am happy the capatin has been rescued and will soon be returning to his family safe.

I commend him for his bravery and unselfish consideration for those he was responsible for.

I admire him for his fortitude and resilience in the face of this danger. I am relieved that his family will soon have him home safe.

I applaud our Naval forces for their their abilities and skills.

I am greatful that our president had the good sense to work with and follow the advice of our military advisors.

All without feeling the need to grandstand, but simply ensuring the task was handled.

CAPT. PHILLIPS YOU ARE A BRAVE MAN
