SEABEES Say!: Bravo Zulu", reporter gets it right!

Giving credit where credit is due. "Stormin' "

Shipmates, changed my mind. There's nothing useful for me to add to this outstanding article and photos. BZ to the reporter. Somebody is finally getting it right when reporting on the SEABEES ! I was there and personally told each of my SEABEE brothers I was proud of him. I shed some tears for those who shed their blood and was very moved by the entire experience. All the way with OSK ! "Stormin' "

Subject: Navy's Band of Brothers

Message: Ken, You did an outstanding job on this article. I was there and know that you covered the subject magnificently! The SEABEES have long been overshadowed in media reporting by the other branches whom they build for and fight alongside, and even sometimes die beside. Your article goes a long way toward correcting that historical oversight. The traditional Navy term for expressing "job well done!" is "Bravo Zulu" abbreviated as "BZ". On behalf of United States Navy SEABEES everywhere I send now "BZ" to you. and thanks!
