In Memory

 

Of the following Shipmates who have

Answered the call “To the Staff of the

Supreme Commander

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

“We who remain to carry on should not think

Of our Shipmates as departed from us, but

Rather as having been transferred to the celestial

Ship or station, where we hop all of us may be

Shipmates Again.”

 

May eternal light shine upon these SHIPMATES
