God Bless,Rest in Peace Warrior.....

He was just a simple soldier and his ranks are growing thin
But his presence should remind us; we may need his like again,
For when countries are in conflict, then we find the soldier's part
Is to clean up all the troubles that the politicians start.
If we cannot do him honor while he's here to hear the praise,
Then at least let's give him homage at the ending of his days.......

Perhaps just a simple headline in the paper that might say:
OUR COUNTRY IS IN MOURNING, FOR A SOLDIER DIED TODAY. (author unknown)

The passing of our soldiers often go unnoticed and unsung by most of the world, remembered only by family and friends. Wish it were not so. May he RIP, his family will be in my thoughts and prayers.........

I realize it's a Canadian song,however I believe most appropriate for this occasion......

Doug was a great friend, and team-mate when he was the Senior Commo on 014, when we were rebuilding the MFF capability in C 1-10. A great warrior that will be missed.

His memorial service is 4 Aug 09, 1000hrs at the Panzer Chapel.

There has been a memorial fund established, but i don't have complete details at this time. More to follow later.

De Oppresso Liber!

RIP Brother

my heart goes out to your family and teammates, we had some good times jumping at Eloy

Thanks for your sacrifice!

NOTE: Although obviously heartfelt, if you plan on participating in this forum, you need to first go to the following link and follow the instructions:
