        Right before Op Sail in NY we were in Boston on NY’s training vessel “Empire State V” The city of Boston was wonderful! And gave a few hundred FREE tickets to the cadets for Fenway Park! For a Yankee fan a real treat! After 42 yrs time to say Thank You!

        "Joyously" Now, there's a word that's sadly been absent from the national dialogue for some time.

        In 1976...the only thing America celebrated was the bicentennial...we needed the distraction from our everyday selves...kinda like now.

        I was Asst. City Manager of a small, 82% Latino city in California during the bicentennial & I remember it well. There was hope & a reason to celebrate. Many migrant farmworkers in the area joined in the celebration without fear of hearing "papers please"! How far we've fallen!

        I spent Bicentennial Sunday working my second day at an NPR station. Lonely but memorable. #1976

        Op Sail’76 I was there as a cadet aboard the NYS training vessel “Empire State V” which was acting as the Governor’s reviewing ship anchored in the lower bay for the parade of Tall Ships. (Regrettably, we did not get to stay and see the fireworks)

        Seems so long ago. It’s only two years after Watergate, but the country came back together. Today is different. Nixon loved USA. Trump could care less. In 1974, GOP Sen. Howard Baker was a hero. Today’s GOP are traitorous cowards protecting a tyrant psychopath. God Rescue America
