Navy Does It Again

Navy beat Army (38-3) for a record sixth time, today. I think it is safe to say Reggie Campbell stole the show today with two touchdowns, including a 98 yard kick-off return, the longest in the history of football at Annapolis.

To Honor His Son

Dr. Bill Krissoff, age 61, is closing his medical practice, enlisting in the US Navy Medical Corps, and hoping to receive an assignment to a field hospitol in Iraq. Dr. Krissoff's son, 1st Lt Nathan Krissoff, a counterintelligence officer, was killed in Al-Abar Province in Iraq in December 2006 (http://iraq.pigstye.net/article.php/KrissoffNathan). Dr. Krissoff's commissioning was hastened after a meeting with President Bush (http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-doctor1dec01,0,7221630.story?coll=la-home-center).

Dr. Krissoff deserves our thanks, not only for the sacrifices and service of his son, for his service, but also for setting an example with his personal courage and sacrifice. Both father and son are heroes.
