Si Yu'os Ma'ase' for your support of the "Seven Heroes of Malesso'"
Si Yu’os Ma’åse’ for joining us to witness the signing of Bill 303-36 in honor of the “7 Heroes of Malesso," namely Jose "Tonko" Reyes, Vicente Meno, Patricio Taijeron, Nicolas Ada, Mariano Nangauta, Jose Nangauta, and Juan Acfalle Naputi, who prevented a total massacre of the people of Malesso❣️🙏 I’m proud to say that my Tata, Juan Acfalle Naputi, and my 2 uncles (my Nana’s brothers), Mariano Nangauta & Jose Nangauta, are 3 of the 7 heroes. Malesso is the only village liberated by the villagers themselves and not by the U.S. Armed Forces. May all our heroes Rest In Peace! If it weren’t for them, I would not be here today.

AMLOC C-School Inspirational
The Auxiliary Mid-Level Officer Course (AMLOC) C-School I attended in Florida taught by COMO Tracy DeLaughter and Dr. Mike Brzezicki this past week was truly inspirational. Not only did I learn a firm foundation in leadership theory & practice that are relevant to the Coast Guard, but I networked with amazing fellow USCG Auxiliary leaders who are genuinely passionate about making a difference in their respective communities. Although I did not get to meet Sandy DeLaughter during the training, her son, COMO Tracy, did an excellent job in facilitating the C-School!
Aside from the meaningful topics and awesome fellowship, another highlight of our AMLOC C-School was the pebble/rock activity that empowered us to be creative and showcase our characteristics. The story I shared regarding this project focused on FAMILY, TEACH, DIVERSITY, and EMPOWERMENT. The following is a snapshot of our class pebbles:

I also got a chance to meet with my Division Chief, Jonathan Ahlbrand, and discuss the upcoming Moodle projects we'll be working on. The following is a quick snapshot we took:

The day wasn't over, as I had the opportunity to meet with my Public Education Team as well. It was wonderful to meet Dave and Karen in person after participating in a number of Zoom sessions with them. The following is a quick snapshot we took:

Happy 4th of July!
Happy 4th of July to one and all! We are grateful to all veterans & those who serve in the Armed Forces, for they are instrumental in the freedom we enjoy today.
Variously known as the Fourth of July and Independence Day, July 4th has been a federal holiday in the United States since 1941, but the tradition of Independence Day celebrations goes back to the 18th century and the American Revolution (1775-83). In June 1776, representatives of the 13 colonies then fighting in the revolutionary struggle weighed a resolution that would declare their independence from Great Britain. On July 2nd, the Continental Congress voted in favor of independence, and two days later its delegates adopted the Declaration of Independence, a historic document drafted by Thomas Jefferson. From 1776 until the present day, July 4th has been celebrated as the birth of American independence, with typical festivities ranging from fireworks, parades and concerts to more casual family gatherings and barbecues.Source: http://www.history.com/topics/holidays/july-4th
