A friend of mine from college died at the Pentagon on 9/11. Navy Lt. Cmdr. Dan Shanower would be proud of his Navy comrades who finally brought justice to the man responsible for the attacks on our country on that horrible day.
This is close to the P-38 raid that got Tojo.
This is close to the P-38 raid that got Tojo.
It got the mastermind of the Pearl Harbor raid.
It wasn’t Tojo.
RIP Commander. You have been avenged.
(I knew him briefly at Carroll - you must have gone there too?)
Bin Laden was killed on Sunday. The British Navy’s traditional toast in the wardroom on Sundays is to Absent Friends. I suggest this appropriate toast to your friend. If it’s Pusser’s Rum, all the more appropriate...
Now We have to deal with "Was this an assassination"?
The only way we can get out of it is by saying he was killed by his own before we had the chance.
Small world...I did not know Dan well, but I do remember him from Carroll also.
