Great post SULLY1 thanks for shareing it


Count it the greatest sin to prefer life to honor, and for the sake of living to lose what makes it worth living.

Pucillo has Captain Wynn Foster to thank for paving the way for Naval personnel losing a limb and being able to continue in service. He fought the bureaucrats in Washington and at the higher levels of the Navy. He lost a hand due to enemy action on a flight over Vietnam and went thru h*ll to stay on active duty. His story is told in his book "Captain Hook: A [Navy] Pilot's Tragedy and Triumph in the Vietnam War, by Captain Wynn F. Foster, US Navy, Retired. Well worth the read!
