COL Howard's Funeral

Hey to all, I was there yesterday and the turn out was much larger. The chapel wasn't quit full but pretty close. The number of MoH recipients there was awesome. The Vice Chief of Staff (4 Star) SMA, LTG MUllholland, MG Repass a bunch of CSM's and soldiers retired and in uniform.

I did not make it to grave side as the procession was quit long, I think folks may have actually been sitting in their cars to go to the grave site. I had the opportunity to train, airborne and Ranger schools where then SFC Howard and then MAJ Howard was.....what a inspiration as an instructor and mentor. I am proud to have known him. Rest in Peace Col Howard, RLTW!! CSM-H
