My fondest memory of my 21 years of Naval Service was being stationed as a Chief Petty Officer at Naval Support Activity, Naples, Italy. As the ADP Security Officer of the Command, I had the priviledge of working for one of the finest and most dedicated Commanding Officers in the United States Navy, Captain John R. Paron. Captain Paron led by example and always put his Sailors and Marines first in support of our Navy Mission. I wish him and his family Fair Winds and Following Seas!
