As they were classmates (and friends) together in basic Loadmaster class, our son knew one of the young men lost in this crash. A very sad and tragic loss for the USA.

Stay strong out there USAF airmen!

This is an unfortunate loss. We must always remember there are American soldiers all over the world trying to make the world a better place.

 

[lenny]

Yes, very unfortunate

East China joke or for real never heard of it?

Sorry Jim, it's a tough one. It's always important to keep all those serving in mind as we too often take our freedom for granted.

The young man that I spoke of is from Milwaukee. There may be members of this board who know the family.

Thanks for the kind words Kip! Mark is taking this fairly hard as he knew the young man well. By all accounts he was a good kid and "the life of the party" kida guy.

It doesn't take long to become friends in the military and some are even closer than family. It also doesn't take long to lose a friend, in war time are peace time it is a dangerous business to be in. Bless you Brothers and Sisters
