Comdr. Paul S. Frommer, U.S. Navy (ret.): “I served 23 years on active duty in both the Atlantic and Pacific, including two tours in Vietnam. I had a ROTC scholarship and most of my duty was in destroyers. My last tour of duty was command of the destroyer USS Barry and our home port was in Athens, Greece. I would do it all again. It was wonderful and a privilege serving this country.”
