Sweet. I’ve met a few pelicans over the years. One even became one of my best friends.

There are a few I’d really like to have a beer with… a certain Captain is close to the top of the list.

I nearly. Reached out to cloggie when I was in NL a couple weeks ago. Maybe I will next trip, assuming that’s where he is.

There was a time here where I think I had met most of the PARF regulars, but lots of them don't post much anymore. Between LA, Phoenix and Dallas, I met a lot of the inner circle here.

A most excellent post!

In my travels to Porsche Parade I have met many Pelicans from Byron in Fla, to people in California, Washington, and all across the country. All of them have been nice to meet, and cordial.

Maybe some of you guys will come to Oklahoma City this July for Porsche Parade, and I can meet more of ya!

Thank you very much Raffi! I had a fantastic time finally meeting you in-person. I admire your military career and your solid foundational character as a man. You were one of the heroes high in the sky providing support for us Marines on the ground. We simply need more people in the world like you.

I love your optimistic view of life and your devotion to your family. You are a breath of fresh air, my friend!

The only change in your initial post was that "SammyG" was the person who came to my house to diagnose and fix an electrical issue with my former 1983 SC. Jack Olson and Speeder came on ride-alongs with me in the beautiful city of Compton on the graveyard shift.

There are many fantastic Pelicans on this board, including some who have passed away, who make all of us better people. I am humbled by your post about me and always strive to do my best.

I will pen that book in the near future and keep everyone updated. Working patrol in some of the toughest neighbors gives you the best front-row seats for some crazy events. I have a lot of stories depicting the best and worst of our people.

Cheers brother! Rock on, David

You are welcome and anytime my friend.

My apologies to SammyG for mixing up the stories . . .

It is quite an amazing community Wayne has created here, full of fantastic and interesting people.

The wife has accused me of having a “Bro-Mance.”

I told her there is plenty of David to go around. :)

Let's not forget Raffi's gift to the children and troops over the years being Santa!
