Thank you, soldier. My prepared text today was to have been make thy name be remembered in all generations, but i think im going to depart from my prepared sermon. While i was listening to the sergeants solo, i kept looking up at our service flag. I was thinking of the men in service. I see some of them here this morning. Private roberts. Sergeant jackson. Lieutenant carter. And private parks, first class. First class is right. I was over at the uso the other night and i met somebody i hadnt seen in quite a long time. The last time i saw this man, well, one of my members treated me to a ticket to Yankee Stadium to see joe lewis versus maksymilian. In one minute and 49 seconds, an american fist won a victory. But it wasnt the final victory. No, that victory is going to take a little longer and a whole lot more american fists. Now, those two men that were matched in the ring that night are matched again. This time in a far greater arena and for much greater stakes. Max schmeling in the a

Shipping noise and other sounds from human activity in oceans harm numerous marine species, according to a broad new assessment of existing research. The findings, published this month in
Science, also include viable solutions some already in use that could buy time to address tougher problems such as ocean acidification and potentially save the lives of imperiled species such as southern resident killer whales, Maui dolphins and Atlantic cod.
