Our first time on a major-league field today!  We had the privilege of honoring  a number of our veterans today through "Got Your 6".  Our special guest was Survivor Mr. C, who came all the way from Arizona.  You may remember him from our post back in February.
Mr. C didn't start telling his story until decades after surviving 5 days afloat on the ocean with no food or water.  We had the chance to help him receive some long overdue honor and attention.

After a long march through the underbelly of the stadium and a very hot 20 minutes or so on the field, it was off to the owner's box to mingle with the famous and influential.  Mr. C may have rubbed elbows with an admiral or two, as well as the new owners of the Padres.  The all-you-can-eat cooked-to-order kitchen didn't hurt, either.  Lobster, anyone?
