Enduring Image

This is in regard to state Sen. Jim Brulte’s reference to drunken sailors (Inside Politics, Jan. 28). Many thanks to Democratic campaign director Bob Mulholland for his righteous indignation at this insolent slur. However, having served on a destroyer in the ‘50s, I must confess that when we hit port we worked hard to preserve the image that has endured so obstinately over the years.
