I am deeply offended by the un-American comments about the Filipino community by fellow submariner Arthur W. Pearsall.
Our heritage is not that of hatred nor self-indulging. Rather it is respectful, fair, compassionate, loving, caring and helpful to all people. The derogatory comments of Pearsall about his fellow veterans have no merit whatsoever.
