Shortly after the dedication and dive at the Circle of Heroes Memorial in Clearwater, Florida, I was approached by my local dive group, the Gateway Hammerheads, to provide a briefing and show my video. The date finally came and I was pleased to talk about the monument, the dive, and of course, the Veterans of Foreign Wars.
We had a group of about 20 and it was a nice evening renewing old acquaintances and talking about our passion for diving. Even VFW friends Paul and Sharon showed up to listen. Sadly, I don't get to do as much diving or teaching lately but there is always time for that after I finish my mission with the VFW.
Many of you have already received your November/December issue of VFW Magazine and may have read the article on pages 22-24 about the Monument. If you'd like to see a video of the dive, check out this link:
