The Ernest Algorri Sr. Scholarship salutes the YANKEE AIR PIRATE podcast. The story of Vietnam POW Capt. Dick Stratton who served 6 1/2 years in a Vietnam prison after being shot down and who tells his story first-hand with his son Pat, a Naval Academy USMC veteran as the host. Incredible story of personal strength, courage and American determination by a Stanford and Georgetown graduate who decided to serve his country as a Navy Carrier pilot upon graduation. Also just plain funny at the right times.

We salute you Capt. Stratton!

The Ernest Algorri, Sr. memorial scholarship is celebrating what would have been my father’s 95th birthday this coming Monday, October 26th.

As a survivor of the Great Depression with 4 brothers and as a WWII US Navy veteran he would have demanded civility, decorum, class and courage in these challenging times. He voted neither republican nor democrat—he voted on who he felt was best under the circumstances while respecting differing points of view. He knew that is why his generation fought a world war against enemy forces.

The Scholarship stands for these basic principles and salutes all Americans who respect our country and all its institutions that preserve these values. Most importantly the Scholarship supports those young men and woman in both active duty and veteran status who place their life on the life not for only these ideas but for all of us to have the right to peacefully disagree.

Both a Stanford and Georgetown grad and what did honorable Captain Dick Stratton do? He became a navy carrier pilot in the Vietnam war and was a POW for six years in the Hanoi Hilton with John McCain after being shot down.

The Ernest Algorri Sr. Memorial Scholarship salutes Captain Stratton for
placing courage, duty and principle over financial gain and upholding our finest American traditions.

Before the party at Sacred Heart of Faiths church I dropped into Blakely’s nearby apartment as he dressed in a fine back suit, bow tie, and spanking new white Air Jordans.
