SUMMARY:Louis Russo\, USN\, Gulf Veteran
DESCRIPTION:The family of Louis Russo has invited the Patriot Guard to stand a flag line in honor of his life and service to our country. \nShortly after high school Louie joined the US Navy where he proudly served for twelve years.  His first duty station was aboard the USS Gallant\, a Navy Minesweeper at Treasure Island\, CA.  The ship’s motto “Iron men on wooden ships” was very appropriate for Louie.  He then served a shore duty tour in Perth\, Australia\, where he learned to “swim with the sharks.”  During the first Gulf War Louie served aboard the USS Reuben James\, a Guided Missile Frigate\, in the Persian Gulf with port calls in Kuwait\, Bahrain\, Qatar and the UAE. The Navy then assigned him to hazardous duty as Chief Engineer on ocean going tugs at the Concord Naval Weapons Station in CA\, guiding ammunition ships in and out of San Francisco Bay.  Louie was very proud of his military service and a staunch supporter of our Veterans and our Flag. \nAfter leaving the Navy Louie joined the US Merchant Marine\, continuing his maritime career. This time he sailed in the Northern Pacific and the Mediterranean\, visiting ports in Alaska\, Spain\, Greece and Italy. \nPlease come out and stand in silent tribute to Honor Louis’s life and service to our country. \n11:45 am – Stage Lane A (along fence on 34th Ave S) at Ft Snelling National Cemetery\n12:15 pm – Brief\n12:45 pm – Interment \nEstimated release: 2:00 pm \nDismissal at RCIC’s discretion. \nThis is a rain\, or shine mission.
