Officer Hashimoto,

I recently received the memorial scholarship established in your memory, which was what introduced me to you, and your story. I hope that I may one day live up to the example of service, excellence and selfless sacrifice which you set in your life. In the minds and hearts of the lives you have touched, even many of us now, who were born years after you left, you live on.
