Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery

Shipmate Scott and family,

We did not serve together directly but we breathed the same air and sand in the Persian Gulf.

Thank you for your selfless service, willingness to sacrifice to protect our flag of freedom.

Your legacy is woven into the fabric of our Nation.

I cannot say it better than this:

I can imagine no more rewarding a career. And any man who may be asked in this century what he did to make his life worthwhile, I think can respond with a good deal of pride and satisfaction: 'I served in the United States Navy.

President John F. Kennedy

Rest easy Shipmate and Rest in Peace, we have the watch.


Mike Korman, MCPO USN-Ret.
