Captain Tony Parisi provides readers with insight into what it is like to serve aboard a historic U.S. Navy warship, USS THE SULLIVANS (DDG-68), and delivers sage wisdom and valuable lessons learned from a life at sea. "We Stick Together" is a sea going leadership memoir that explores the Mediterranean and Black Seas as well as the inner self. The theme of this entertaining and detailed book revolves around the ship's motto We Stick Together and focuses on how the sacrifice of the Sullivan brothers continues to motivate sailors to strive for excellence as they prepare for war by focusing on what is most important in life. Love, learning, and happiness flourish aboard USS THE SULLIVANS (DDG-68) guided by the spirits of real American heroes, George, Francis, Joseph, Madison, and Albert Sullivan. This is the story of average selfless Americans doing extraordinary things and in the process finding meaningful purpose in life. It is a true story about winning at sea and in life.
We Stick Together is a positive, entertaining, and enlightening journey aboard a modern warship as told by the captain, the son of a fisherman and a simple kind of man, who believes in critical thinking, rock and roll, the American dream, and the importance of family. Captain Tony shares his personal journal entries and inner thoughts, taking the reader on a journey across the sea and into the soul.
Navy traditions and customs are explained through pop culture, Ancient Greek philosophy, and humorous sea stories that involve UFOs, rock music, Magellan, the Miami Dolphins Cheerleaders, and a pilgrimage to Jerusalem. This is a story of the pursuit of truth and excellence that illuminates the meaning of true happiness, or what the ancient Greeks called eudaimonia. We Stick Together is a story for everyone who seeks fulfillment and purpose in life. Get underway and shift colors with the crew of USS THE SULLIVANS (DDG-68) on a rock and roll voyage of happiness, self-realization, and enlightenment.
