| I;m hoping someone out there can help me. I live in Huntsville, Alabama, USA. We have a Lt. Cdr. in the RN that works with us. He is a foreign national assigned to our base. January '09 he is retiring from the service. We have looked all over the Internet for any retirement type customs and traditions for his ceremony. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. He is such a great guy and we have loved having him here. We want this to be very special for him. I appreciate it and look forward to hearing from you guys out there. | |
