I have known Captain Chris Thompson since 1979! We were in the 5th grade together. We attended Landon School, NAPS, and then the U.S. Naval Academy together. Although our starting points were identical, our paths and journeys were very different. Chris was praying daily in the Rotunda Chapel at the Naval Academy, while I was running around town. Chris was a tremendous student-athlete. He grew up in Washington D.C., taking two city buses along with the Landon School bus to get to and from home every day. This did not stop him from being captain of the tennis team who dominated in the classroom and on the tennis court! Chris took his ability to lead along with his grit and tenacity onto Annapolis, MD to help prepare him for the rigors of being an officer in the U.S. Navy. After completing Supply Corp School in Atlanta, Georgia, he was soon attached to the USS INDEPENDENCE CV-62 from 1993-1995. Following serving on the USS INDEPENDENCE, over the next 28 years Chris successfully led in various positions on sea and land. Finally, retiring from active duty, completing 31 years of service in June of 2021. Today, retired Captain Chris Thompson is Director of Supply Chain for Winland Foods in Oakbrook, IL. He is married with three kids, still playing competitive tennis, and living a life dedicated to giving God the glory. I am Billy Yancey. God is THE GOAT!
