One after the other the heroes pass on. Luckily for us they leave much more than just memories behind.

I had the honour and pleasure to meet the "father of frogmen" Dr Chris Lambertsen a few times during conferences in the US and elsewhere. I heard him give a one hour lecture at an ONR meeting when he was well into his nineties about his first invention - the oxygen rebreather. Dr Lambertsen (as I am sure John Spence also did) epitomized the "can do" mentality that won the war for the US and the Allies.

If only a smidgen of that mentality lives on today in America it will in the end turn out to be impossible for "the one" to "fundamentally transform" the US.

Another courageous hero that Barack Obama dishonors every single day.

RIP John Spence.

As Navy 2nd Class Diver, this story brings back memories of my Hard Hat and SCUBA diving days.

Again, Rest In Peace, John Spence.
