No wonder they’ve shot so poorly on the road in PHX. Imagine game prep in a high school gym equivalent for a professional team. That’s like asking Dallas Stars hockey to strap on rollerblades and warmup shooting on asphalt…

At 1140pm June 8, also known in Colorado as Donald G. Stratton day, my dad Randy Don Stratton lost his battle with a lung infection, going home to our Lord God in Heaven. He joins my grandpa, grandma, brother Robert, sisters Gypsy and Roxane. Heartsick and so so devastated.

During the attack on the USS Arizona, Donald G. Stratton, Seaman First Class, would head towards his battle station at Arizona's No. 2 gun turret. After a massive explosion, Stratton, badly burned, would survive.🇺🇸 #PearlHarbor82 #USSArizonaSurvivor #FacesOfUSSArizona Nikki Stratton

Donald G. Stratton, Seaman First Class, USS Arizona (BB-39) Survivor 1922-2020. A grateful nation returns your salute in perpetuity. #USSArizona #PearlHarbor82 #FacesOfUSSArizona

The USS Arizona held approximately 1.5 million gallons (5.7 million liters) of “Bunker-C” oil. The oil rising from the hull to the surface to this day is referred to as “black tears”. #PearlHarbor82

UNKNOWN USS ARIZONA PEARL HARBOR DECEMBER 7 1941 #PearlHarborRemembranceDay #PearlHarbor82

Once again, we would sincerely like to thank all those that followed along today. In doing so, you have honored not only the officers and men of USS Arizona, but all those at Pearl Harbor and on O‘ahu on that fateful day in 1941. Aloha from Pearl Harbor, Hawai‘i. #PearlHarbor82

Incredible pleasure to address military, local and national political leaders and civilians alike focusing on the readiness of the nation to ensure an attack such as the one 82 years ago, never happens again. vimeo.com/873042314 #ussarizona #PearlHarbor #usnavy

Lol United Airlines using the 1/8th carousel in Denver. 90% of it is blocked by construction. Only 10% showing. Decided to load up 4 flights at the same time. Guess what broke… meanwhile there are 3 OPEN full carousels not being used. People have been waiting for their bags for hours 😂

Absolutely LOVED being on the The Real Mike Rowe podcast. Just a super genuine guy. And I always love talking about my grandpa! How Nikki Stratton's Grandfather Survived Pearl Harbor | The Way I Heard... youtu.be/EckhEay1Yks?si…

Still can’t believe I got to hangout and talk about my grandpa with Mike Rowe! I know both my grandpa and dad would be thrilled!
