These patriots designed and built our ships. They sustained and set the standards for our ships. They connected us to each other and to the fleet, and they protected and sustained our headquarters. These 12 members of our navy team, our navy family, they were killed in the line of duty. They died in service to our navy, in service just a that the committed to just as any of us in uniform.
