<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:red'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='text-indent:.5in'>“My beloved brother, John,
entered the United States Navy immediately upon graduating from Duke University,
just a few months after his 20th birthday. He served first on the aircraft
carrier USS Windham Bay and then on the world’s largest carrier, the
USS Saratoga. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='text-indent:.5in'><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> John passed away on April 7, 2008. If he were
here, he would join World War II veterans from his home areas, Salisbury and
Charlotte, on this flight because of his great respect for the sacrifices
made by so many and his tremendous patriotism and love of country. I am the
little sister who idolized him, and I am proud to sponsor an Honor Flight in
loving memory of John. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> I remember well the little Wave uniform Lt.
Hanford brought me when he came home to Salisbury on “survivor’s
leave.” Twice the “Sara” had been struck by torpedoes
fired by enemy submarines and forced to retire for repairs. Her heaviest
damage was suffered near Iwo Jima when she was struck by seven bombs and five
Kamikaze planes. Fires and explosions ripped the ship as her gunners fought
back and her repair crews struggled to control the damage. The Saratoga survived,
but 123 of John’s shipmates gave their lives and over 300 were injured.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='text-indent:.5in'>John was from a generation that
rarely discussed their war<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>experiences, but their legacy is clear. They saved
America and the world for freedom and democracy. May generations to come
always remember and thank God for their service and sacrifice. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal> <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='text-indent:.5in'>My heartfelt thanks to the Rotary
