Sam Moyers | Antisubmarine Warship Naval Officer

For Sam Moyers, serving his country was never really a question of whether or not but when. His family history is rich with military service - his father survived 4 V-2 bombings in London and an uncle crashed off the coast of Vietnam. When his draft letter arrived after earning his masters degree, he signed up for Naval Officer Candidate school. His service took him to the western pacific twice aboard the Antisubmarine Warship, the USS Floyd B. Parks. After the Tonkin Gulf incident and retrieving downed pilots in the gulf, Moyer's most terrifying moments happened at the hand of mother nature's typhoon.
