Today all of us really embark on the primary mission that sent us to the Red Sea. How well we accomplish that people to people mission depends on every member of the THOMAS crew. Whether participating in a ball game, doing volunteer work on a local proiect, donating blood, or iust going ashore we truly represent the Navy and our Country. Although I remind you of this, I personally have the greatest confidence in each and every one of you and know that this ship will never take a back seat to any other.
