that's interesting! thanks for sharing:) speaking of the navy...
remember that story about Saint Brendan the Navigator...and his journey to find the promised land west of Ireland (they say he found America before Columbus)
"(The old chronicle said that St. Brendan took a crew of 17 and spent seven years going and coming.)"
"St. Brendan’s most famous monastery was built in Clonfert in County Galway in 560. Today, there is a cathedral located there, surrounded by a cemetery. St. Brendan’s grave is simply marked immediately outside the cathedral front doors. He died at that age of 93 in 577 A.D.
St. Brendan the Navigator is known as the patron saint of sailors and the United States Navy. He is the patron of those who are afraid because he himself was fearless in setting out into uncharted water and in uncertain circumstances."
