My wife was a wonderful editor. She took out a red pen and skewered it. She was correct in every case. It was fun to work together over a period of a couple of years until finally we said, okay, pens down. We had a great publisher who made it happen. We got it through the review process for DoD to make sure nothing classified was in there. Frankly I’m surprised some of it made it in. We do talk a lot about submarine operations and some of the SEAL operations. The phrase was uttered by Pliny the Elder, Roman navy commander, during a rescue mission as Mount Vesuvius erupted in 79 ACE. His advisors suggested greater caution, but his only retort was: “Fortune favors the bold!” He sailed zealously across the bay under the threatening sky of the bellowing volcano. The O'Keeffe family motto is “Forti et fideli nihil difficile” which translates as “For the brave and faithful, nothing is difficult”. [18] We have to speak up on behalf of those who cannot speak for themselves. ― Peter Singer, Animal Liberation A few topics that stand out from CDG-1’s singular operations are: (1) information warfare, (2) aviation, and (3) naval mines. First, Costello explains the importance of information to the navy’s efforts, which in part led him to actively include media representatives aboard ships. In turn, this enabled CDG-1 to disseminate word of its mission and achievements on deployment. Given the growing importance of information to today’s military environment, the explanations and examples from information warfare will resonate with today’s readers.
In short, you need to act bravely or boldly to increase your chances of getting the outcome you want. Contrary to popular belief, the saying shows that one cannot be fortunate “by chance.” It takes excellent skills and values for fortune to favor you. The most critical need of the church at this moment is men,boldmen, free men. The church must seek, in prayer and much humility, the coming again of men made of the stuff of which prophets and martyrs are made.” A.W. Tozer A minister, without boldness, is like a smooth file, a knife without an edge, a sentinel that is afraid to let off his gun. If men will be bold in sin, ministers must be bold to reprove.” William Gurnall Virgil has been traditionally ranked as one of Rome's greatest poets. His Aeneid is also considered a national epic of ancient Rome, a title held since its composition.One of the special marks of the Holy Ghost in the Apostolic Church was the spirit of boldness.”A. B. Simpson
Another version of the proverb, fortes Fortuna adiuvat, 'fortune favours the strong/brave', was used in Terence's 151 BC comedy play Phormio, line 203. Ovid further parodies the phrase at I.608 of his didactic work, Ars Amatoria, writing "audentem Forsque Venusque iuvat" or "Venus, like Fortune, favors the bold." The quote " Fortes Fortuna Juvat " is used by the Jydske Dragonregiment, or Jutish Dragoon Regiment, in the Royal Danish Army. [6] Italy [ edit ] Once the decision was made, Admiral Costello assumed a role at the helm of Cruiser-Destroy Group 1 (CDG-1), which comprised approximately 7,500 sailors and marines. The book helpfully includes illustrations and descriptions of CDG-1’s components, including leaders embarked aboard the aircraft carrier Constellation, along with its air wing and weaponry. Such details provide context for readers unfamiliar with the navy and set the scene for the operations that follow. Corinthians 7:4-5 I am acting with great boldness toward you; I have great pride in you; I am filled with comfort. In all our affliction, I am overflowing with joy. For even when we came into Macedonia, our bodies had no rest, but we were afflicted at every turn—fighting without and fear within. ( Comforting Bible verses)

A dream doesn't become reality through magic; it takes sweat, determination and hard work. ― Colin Powell No one should be afraid of what he thinks, even if his thought seems to conflict with the most elementary laws of logic.
