Blown away by what a high quality production this is. Although I guess I shouldn't be surprised. Keep up the excellent work and thank you for your service.

Great story, Murph! Thanks for sharing. I can see from your face when retold, that his influence on you was/is profound

Good stuff guys. It makes me think of that quote: "I felt sorry for myself for I had no shoes, until I met a man who had no feet." Thank you for sharing.

Hey guys, a big correction on my part.  VA was killed in August not November.  I have no idea why I got November stuck in my head!

 @JackMurphyRGR Sorry that didn't get edited in time Jack. We had already locked and loaded that piece.

 @JackMurphyRGR Not a problem Jack.  With recounting a lot of your personal recollection of such an influential friend and mentor in your life and military career, I think we can let you slide on that one.  Thanks for the sharing part by the way......///and stay away from the hedge clippers will 'ya.  I hear those things are a bitch at close range. :)

@Old PH2 @JackMurphyRGR @SleazyWeazel Steinlager or MD 20/20 always earned me a chat with the local posse... and a frightening headache. Now I am the guy who is the designated driver...
