Bataan

Participating in the Bataan was something I wanted to accomplish this year. Last year I met Vietnam Vet at TAPs whose father was in the Bataan and is son had died in Iraq. It was an inspiring moment and I wanted to do the walk. I honorably walked the half. Maybe next yeat I could walk the full with some preparation and discipline.


We always say keeping saying their names to keep their legacy alive. I had the opportunity to do that for almost six hours on Sunday morning and it was an honor.

Giuseppe La Rosa

The importance of partnerships and friendships.
I only had two conversations with him and frankly I am not even sure what we chatted about. The other folks on our team were closer to his team.
I attended a beautiful Italian Memorial Ceremony for him on Sunday and then watched his arrival into Rome live in the Italian DFAC.
A bit surreal, saddened and restlessness.


Rest in Peace - Giuseppe La Rosa
