Brother and sister find each other in the Navy

ABC News 10 in San Diego tells the story of a brother and sister who reunited after more than 30 years when they discovered that they were both in the Navy and both in California;

With a quick salute and a long hug, Cmdr. Cindy Murray and Chief Aviation Ordnanceman Robert Williamson closed the gap on more than 30 years.

“It’s the greatest thing. I looked for him for the longest time and now here he is and it’s just great,” said Murray, a senior nursing officer at Naval Medical Center San Diego.

“Never in a million years did I think I would be standing here in this situation,” added Williamson, who is stationed at Naval Air Station Lemoore, Calif.

Thanks for the link to Instinct who says that Naval service must be genetic.

  1. Being from an ancestrally Army family through the Revolutionary War, I agree Naval service may be genetic. Out of respect to all the ex-Navy folks here, I will withhold speculating as what other genetic features to which it can be compared. Some do come to mind, though.

    (good on yer anyways.)

  2. If only she had known her brother was a Navy Chief sooner. Took her HMC 15 minutes to do what had taken her 30 years to do! Power of the US Navy Chiefs’ Mess!
