View Full Version : MSG Dick Smoot, 2/19, RIP
MSG Smoot passed away as a result of a motorcycle accident. He was quite the mentor for a lot of folks, and I will always remember his lessons and insights. RIP.

He was my TS on the dive team. One of the oldest guys to graduate CDQC. He will be missed.

RIP Dick Smoot.
During OEF I, the owner of one of the baddest SF war beards ever (and world class Afghan beaded cornrows hidden under a desert floppy). Pretty bad ass for a WV hillbilly. I'm proud to have known you, served with you, and called you a friend. See you at the RP.
RIP MSG Smoot
The first time I met Dick Smoot was in Kenova WV. He lined up next to me to run a PT test at the armory by the airfield. I looked at him and wonder WTF is this old bastard doing here? IIRC he went to SFAS, was a non select told them hell I am, stayed and picked right back up with the next SFAS class.
I also remember him bringing a video of the rednecks that lived in white county WV. It was crazy, it started off with a road sign being wrecked by a shotgun, and devolved from there.
He was as hard as woodpecker lips, may he rest in peace.
