WASHINGTON (NNS) -- Today our Navy family mourns the loss of three of our shipmates. Captain David Brown, Commander Laurel Clark and Commander William McCool dedicated themselves to a lifetime of service. Their sacrifice, commitment and passion for excellence are personal examples to all of their shipmates who are privileged to wear the cloth of our nation.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the families of our fallen shipmates as well as the families of all the astronauts who made the ultimate sacrifice today.
