I'd lost track of that news story Naut - well written.. I wondered what had happened to him - yes, a true hero. (and Phillips was pretty brave too) - lol

I'm glad he made it through safely. You're absolutely right to salute him.
I have to say those Navy SEALS are nobody to mess with. Glad they were there, too.

I couldn't agree more. I was about to write about this true hero, but you have already done it better than I ever could. Thanks.

What Mal said... and what Cricket said...
Good to see potential tragedy turn to triumph!
Colleen McCullough's books about Rome and Julius Caesar include a few chapters on Caesar's adventure with capture and captivity by pirates, how he was ransomed, and how he thanked them for their hospitality.

AMEN to that!!! What a guy. And to think, he's a regular, wood-chopping, community minded Vermonter. I am so glad our sharp-shooters came to the rescue and all turned out well. Perhaps the pirates will think twice next time while trying to take on an American ship. Mal
