    Sign on young man, and sail with me. The stature of our homeland is no more than the measure of ourselves. Our will is to keep the torch of freedom burning for all. To this solemn purpose, we call the young, the brave, the strong, and the free. Heed my call. Come to the sea. Come sail with me. - LT John Paul Jones, United States Colonial Navy, 1775, Boston Massachusetts
