I hate that I’m not able to be home to celebrate my favorite veteran, my dad. However, thank you @fleetweeksd and @sdmaritime for live streaming the boat parade! He’s at the back of the Swift Boat, which he spent over 678 hours restoring. 💗🇺🇸

Their loss is felt by our entire Navy and Marine Corps family and, they will never be forgotten.
