Actually, I think he was a lieutenant when he said it. And he finished up as an
admiral.

For anybody visiting Annapolis, I strongly recommend visiting the Naval Academy
Chapel and JPJ's crypt. It is very worthwhile. Their model collection is also
outstanding.

Calling their collection models is like calling the Notre Dame Cathedral a
church. Masterpieces is what comes to mind.
