On this Memorial Day I would like to pay homage to the crew of the USS Juneau. These young men, who selflessly answered their Country's call, joined the Navy right after the attack on Pearl Harbor, as one of them said, "To Defend Our Country". these young men, paid the ultimate sacrifice to make the Guadalcanal Campaign our first offensive success of World War 2. The free world owes a great deal to these young men of the Juneau, and of many other ships lost during the desperate fighting of 1942. They helped turn the tide. Thank You!
