Nixon finds a sailor's message tossed ashore in Bahamas
During a Grand Cay visit on Armed Forces Day 1969, President Nixon picked up an ocean washed note from Navy airman Larry Metivier aboard Guam. The letter asked the writer to contact his grandfather, who later learned from the White House the young man was serving as an aviation apprentice. Nixon reassured the grandfather and praised the Navy and its people.
