Although this is a Raptor Forum, this has to be one of the most memorable post I have read on here. Thank you both for your service and courage. Relay to Thom that I will be praying for him and his family. God Bless!

John,

Please let Tom know we are all thinking of him and thank him for his service! True friends like you have in Tom are hard to come by and even harder to lose.

Thom sounds like my kind of people, thanks for the introduction. I would have loved to meet him in person. I have had my share of NOE sitting on the landing skid. It's a feeling that I have never lost. Just something about flying. I made my first flight in my new glider yesterday and have been flying most of my life. Thank you John.

I can feel the pain you are going thru with your friend. I too suffer from burn pit BS. Go to combat and that is all that they care about. Do your duty and then leave it up to the soldier to deal with after they get out. A sad ending that didn’t have to be for a true hero.
