Call of Duty & Reciprocity / Opportunity
Are you a fan of the popular video game "Call of Duty-Black OPS II"? Check out this article in Military Sealift Command's newsletter, Sealift. Some of our friends at MSC who weren't previously fans of the game probably are now!
James Burns, the voice of Sgt. Frank Woods, and Kamar de los Reyes, the voice of Raul Menendez, portrayed in the game, toured the USS Frank Cable (AS 40) while on a USO-sponsored tour in March, and got to meet some of the men and women who, as Burns noticed, "make our Navy run smooth".
I think what I enjoyed most about the article is the sincere reciprocity and appreciation from both those who serve and the actors. Be sure to check out the cool photos!
Oh, and if you happen to have a child nearing college, you might want to check out the article on the Strategic Sealift Officer Program; it sounds like a great opportunity!

Safety
If you're familiar with Valkyrie, you know how committed we are to safety.
Having said that, one of our favorite sites is that of the Naval Safety Center. It's full of helpful information and you've got to love their philosophy: Work, Play, Live-Safely!
Perhaps one of the most entertaining parts of their website is their "Photo of the Week" section. If there ever was a compilation of photos and captions that would elicit the thought "What were they thinking?!" time and again, this is it!
Have you ever witnessed something on the road that made you do a double-take? Or better yet a full-on stare?! Fortunately for us, there was a passenger in the next lane who was able to capture this monstrosity!

Follow-up: Boardwalk Roll & Stroll
Many thanks to all who supported the American Parkinson Disease Association's Hampton Roads Chapter walk, the Boardwalk Roll & Stroll, on Saturday, April 12! A very special "Thank you!" is extended to Don Bradway, Joanne Brooks, Dave Streett & family, and Lesley, Mallory, and Meghan Washington!
Special recognition to Chris Ambrosino for the Boardwalk Stroll and Roll logo design and the graphics work to put together the 2014 brochure and poster.
Congratulations to Lesley Washington for winning the Education Pavilion raffle prize, a 2 night stay at The Inn at Corolla Light!
The 2014 Boardwalk Stroll and Roll had over 600 attendees and raised more than $17,000 for Parkinson Disease research. The Parkinson Disease Education Pavilion had 20 exhibitors providing information and displays on topics of interest to both people with Parkinson's and our community in general.
Mark your calendar for next year; the 2015 Boardwalk Stroll and Roll will take place on Saturday, April 11, at the Boardwalk and Neptune's Park at the Virginia Beach Oceanfront.
