Dec. 17 1917 - While underway off Point Loma, Calif., USS F 1 collides with her sister submarine, USS F 3. With her hull torn open amidships, she rapidly sinks and loses 19 crewmen.

Dec. 18 1965 - The River Patrol Force is established in Vietnam. In December 1970, the resources are transferred by Admiral Elmo Zumwalt to the Vietnamese navy.

Dec. 19 1941 - Members of the U.S. Naval Academy class of 1942 graduate six months early due to the nation’s entry into World War II.

Dec. 20 1989 - Naval Special Warfare Task Force Papa attacks Punta Paitilla Airport during Operation Just Cause to prevent the dictator, Gen. Manuel Noriega, from leaving Panama.

try not to post too many things from the Internet but when I came across this Christmas version of 1 Corinthians: 13 I felt the need to share it with you.

“If I decorate my house perfectly with plaid bows, strands of twinkling lights and shiny balls but do not show love to my family, I’m just another decorator.

“If I slave away in the kitchen, baking dozens of Christmas cookies, preparing gourmet meals and arranging a beautifully adorned table at mealtime but do not show love to my family, I’m just another cook.

“If I work at a soup kitchen, carol in the nursing home and give all that I have to charity but do not show love to my family, it

profits me nothing.

“If I trim the spruce with shimmering angels and crocheted snowflakes, attend a myriad of holiday parties and sing in the choir’s cantata but do not focus on Christ, I have missed the point.

“Love stops the cooking to hug CHAPLAIN'S CORNER the child. Love sets aside the decorating to kiss the spouse.

Love is kind, though harried and tired. Love NAS Key West does not envy Command Chaplain another’s home Lt. that has coordiScott Mason nated Christmas china and table linens. Love does not yell at the kids to get out of the way, but is thankful they are there to be in the way. Love does not give only to those who are able to give in return; but rejoices in giving to

those who cannot.

“Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things. Love never fails. Video games will break, pearl necklaces will be lost, golf clubs will rust but giving the gift of love will endure.”

I hope that our time during this month and the upcoming year does not lose its focus on love.

Please join us for our Christmas Eve Service at 7 p.m., Dec. 24, at the Truman Chapel on Truman Annex. We will have a Christmas service at our regular worship time on Sundays - 10:30 a.m., at the Truman Chapel.

Also, visit our Facebook page - Truman Chapel - for upcoming events. If you are in need of chaplain care, please call your chaplains at 305-293-2318, Naval Air Station Key West, or 305-292-8788, Coast Guard Sector Key West.
