Default Know this guy?

A Navy commander I knew once gave me a coffee mug with a John Paul
Jones quote on it: "I wish to have no Connection with any Ship that
does not Sail fast for I intend to go in harm's way." The way I see it,
these guys are training to go in harm's way, and I expect them to drive
fast, stay left, and take chances. Of course they're gonna pooch it
once in a while. I'm glad to see they got down safe.
