Veterans of the Cold War were honored Friday at the Museum of American Armor in Old Bethpage.
Former United States Navy Capt. Tom Donovan says he hunted Soviet submarines for 10 years during the Cold War.
"Cat and mouse game where they're trying to hide on you and our goal was to locate them," Donovan says "And then track them to a point where you could actually set up for position to drop a torpedo on them and sink them if necessary."
The program recognized their service and paid tribute to the lives lost in the line of duty.
