Degree 2: Richard Cunningham
from Pillars of Wisdom Hosted by Fidelis lodge 1127
In this episode of The Pillars of Wisdom, Brother Aarron Jones shares the story of his wife’s grandfather, Richard Cunningham, a member of Fidelis Lodge and a survivor of the attack on Pearl Harbor. As a young sailor assigned to the battleship USS West Virginia, Cunningham found himself in the middle of history on the morning of December 7, 1941. Through this story, Brother Cunningham reflects on courage, service, and the quiet moral strength that defined his life long after the war. Even decades later, Cunningham spoke not with bitterness, but with forgiveness and humility, offering a powerful example of faith, duty, and character.
