R.I.P.

[Discus-n00b]

Its always sad to see posts like this, I know the pain you and everyone else close are going through Chad. I've lost a few friends, been on many funeral/rifle details, and even worked some those flights headed to Dover (we call them "Angel Flights") in my time in service and I can honestly say there is nothing more humbling in this world. These guys are the true heros.

Semper Fi/Semper Fortis to Chris, his family, and all of his friends.

Thank you Jeff. You're right, he's finally at peace.
