I already posted this on SOCNET, but I'll double tap it here...

Mike was my PL in the 25th (3rd Platoon "Cold Steel", A co. "Quick Strike", 2/5 Infantry "Bobcats", 3rd Brigade "Broncos")right before I went to the Q course. He also graduated the same Ranger School class as me (5-97), and was in my platoon/ company there.

He was a good leader, one of the most in shape officers I have ever known, and he always led from the front...

Blue Skies Sir....RIP

This True Believer is not concerned about 'how hard it is;' he knows either he wins or dies. He doesn't go home at 17:00, he is home.
He knows only The Cause.

Still want to quit?
