music.
Growing up in Victoria in the
60s was a time where work was
to be had, if you wanted it. Working odd jobs and hauling hay was
a means of earning money. We
worked hard and earned enough
money to buy our musical instruments. Andrew was a strong
young boy and loved to earn money and play music. When Andrew
bought a set of drums, we started a
musical group and played at many
garage parties and other venues.
Andrew became very popular with
the girls because of his music. Andrew also had a kind heart and was
always willing to go the extra mile
to make anyone smile, Alvarez
continued.
Andrew Montanos sister, Justa
M. Julian, remembers her brother
as a good and respectful son to
his father Andres Montano and
mother Agapita Vasquez Montano.
The last letter she received from
Andrew is one that she will always
remember dated July 27, 1969, and
keeps it behind a framed picture of

said Christensen. However, surprisingly, chemotherapys side effects tend to be less severe in our
pets than in humans.

flight operations.
Fast, maneuverable, and technically advanced, destroyers provide
the required war fighting expertise and operational flexibility
to execute any tasking overseas.
With multi-mission capabilities in
surface warfare, anti-submarine
warfare, anti-air warfare, ballistic
missile defense, and humanitarian
assistance, Arleigh Burke destroyers excel as the Navys premier
fighting warship.
Assigned to U.S. 6th Fleet area
of operations, Porter sailors are
conducting naval operations in
support of U.S. national security interests in Europe. U.S. 6th
Fleet, headquartered in Naples,
Italy, conducts the full spectrum of
joint and naval operations, often in
concert with allied, joint, and interagency partners, in order to advance U.S. national interests and
security and stability in Europe
and Africa.
As members of one of the U.S.
Navys most versatile combat
ships, Lopez and other Porter Sailors understand they are part of
a forward-deployed team that is
heavily relied upon to help protect
and defend America and our allies
across the worlds oceans.
I am proud to know we are
keeping the people safe that depend on us, said Lopez. I have
a wife and 3 kids and they are the
reason I continue to serve; to give
them a better world.
Why Being There Matters
On our planet, more than 70
percent of which is covered by
water, being there means having
the ability to act from the sea. The
Navy is uniquely positioned to be
there; the worlds oceans give the
Navy the power to protect Americas interests anywhere, and at
any time. Your Navy protects and
defends America on the worlds
oceans. Navy ships, submarines,
aircraft and, most importantly,
tens of thousands of Americas
finest young men and women are
deployed around the world doing
just that. They are there now. They
will be there when we are sleeping
tonight. They will be there every
Saturday, Sunday and holiday this
year. They are there around the
clock, far from our shores, defending America at all times.
