Dear Secretary of The Navy Mabus,

My name is Matthew Winick from Ann Arbor, Michigan and I have a strong interest in studying history. History is one of my favorite subjects because I like to learn about the need to advance on Civil Rights to help protect people who are different from discrimination, a strong need to protect the environment from pollution by having environmental protection with using renewable energy with alternative energy as an energy source, the need to help honor people who work hard to make a difference or who serve their country to protect us, and many others. Secretary Mabus, your work as Governor of Mississippi with your role as Secretary of the Navy really inspires me to be motivated to learn more history with having the confidence to explore different ideas to learn about how to improve society. My future goal is to use history as a tool to teach people about the need to improve society. I consider you one of my favorite Secretary of The Navy.

When you were Governor of Mississippi, I liked your commitment to work on improving education by putting B.E.S.T. (Better Education for Success Tomorrow) to help fund educational programs to help students get the resources they need to improve learning, improve special education to help people with disabilities get an education that they need, and help teachers get financial support they need. On your role of Secretary of the Navy, I like your hard work on being committed to help our troops with the care they need with helping protect their Civil Rights from being discriminated, find ways to improve the environment from pollution, and advocating for the need for the Navy to use renewable energy with alternative energy as an energy source to reduce our addiction to oil with gas. I like how you work with President Obama on creating Gulf Coast Restoration Plan where you team up with different states including local towns, communities, and tribunal areas work on a plan to find ways to fix the ecosystem from the BP gulf oil spill with finding ways to improve protecting the environment. I recently listen to your speech on the internet about making Navy carriers like aviation with military vehicles use biofuel with finding ways to make technology more energy efficient to reduce our addiction to oil with gas. I enjoyed your speech because I agree with you the need to reduce our addiction to oil with gas and to reduce pollution and that it is the time for the need to use alternative energy including renewable energy with biofuel to help improve the environment and reduce addiction to oil with gas.

Your work on improving education with helping assist students with disabilities really inspires me to work on my disability which is Autism with a learning disability with having the confidence to be motivated to learn new subjects when I have trouble comprehending. Also your work to help people with disabilities really helped me get motivated to have a strong interest in history. Your work as Secretary of the Navy on the environment issue by finding ways to fix the ecosystem from the oil spill with advocating for renewable energy helped me get interested in studying with being more aware about the need to protect the environment. Also your work on having the commitment to find ways to improve the environment with advocating for renewable energy helped me get interested in taking a science class to learn more about the environment with how renewable energy with alternative energy can help reduce pollution and also it helped me get motivated to be a volunteer at Ann Arbor Hands On Museum, a children science museum where I work with other volunteers to teach them about science through demonstrations and even teach them about the benefits of the environment including ways to reduce pollution.

Secretary Mabus, I am proud of your commitment to improve education, helping support our troops, support protecting Civil Rights to help reduce discrimination, and having the commitment to lead the Navy to help protect the environment with promoting renewable energy to reduce pollution. You and President Obama make a great team. You truly inspire me to be motivated to learn more subjects and to have more enjoyment to learn history. I wish you well on continuing your role as Secretary of The Navy and I send my best wishes for you, the troops, and the Navy to do well and for them to help continue helping protect our country. Also I was wondering if you can explain to me what it is like being Secretary of the Navy because I find Secretary of The Navy to be very interesting to me. Thanks for taking the time to read my letter and inspiring me.

Sincerely,

Matthew B. Winick
