"I remember you like it was yesterday and you played a joke on my sgt telling him that your tank had broken down and we could tow it back to Tiger base with a humvee all he had to do was put the tank in neutral and the sgt believed him, I still laugh when I think of the LT and that day. I was sickened when I heard that such a great guy was killed, the army really lost a Great Soldier and a Great Leader. " BRAVE RIFLES SIR!"
