Damn, I just talked to him a few months ago.
We did a class for him and SFAUCC in Dec 2005. Ed was one of those guys who was always looking out for his people, and was fair to a fault.
RIP, hermano.

Old '60s era 2-1/2 ton someone left in the road after a breakdown. Owner had not reported it missing yet, but someone had called the Highway Patrol a few minutes before when they drove by and saw it.
Ed hit it with his Toyota truck at nearly full speed.
Tough break, we lose a great NCO.

I was lucky enough to have Ed as my Team Sgt while on SFAUC. He was a great NCO and I will miss him. RIP Brother.

I knew Doug Leblanc, was purgatoried to the NCO academy back in '01, before it moved out to Mackall. Any relation? Regardless, a loss to the community.
Ed's funeral is tomorrow in Louisiana.. A few of us are trying to get down there for it. Spoke to another NCO we worked with and there is going to be a memorial at some point, for those of us in this area (Fayetteville)
Ed was a hell of a guy and a good friend. This reminds me of just how precious life really is. We're all at a loss without him.
