I would like to pass on this email that I just received.
ALCON, After talking to several people the last two days we realized that many out there didn't know that Mike Kalua had passed away. While many of you may not have known hime there are those around you who did, so please pass this on to your team mates and fellow 18E's. Mike's visitation was last friday evening, 9 July followed by a memorial service the next day at the JFK chapel at Ft. Bragg. Mike had a very storied career within the Special Forces community and continued his service as a Training Instructor assigned to the 18E committee after retirement from active duty.
The number of attendees at his memorial services was amazing, a tribute to the respect we had of him and for his family. His antenna will continue to live on and carry his name - The Kalua Off Center..." THE KOC!
I was one of those students who learned about him through his work.
