if anyone should wonder how he died please PM SWrokit as he is the CO of that squadron and it is his choice to let anyone know how SWfire died. sorry but that is not my position to give out.

Sorry to hear that, prayers sent.

I didn't know him at all, but I live in the UK so won't be able to be at the flight.
Afk for a year or so.  The name of a gun turret in game.  Falanx, huh? :banana:
Apparently I'm in the 20th FG 'Loco Busters', or so the legend goes.

Salute Kilz, and the 173rd for all the assistance and help in putting this together.

I wasn't going to post about Gene's death in here due to the fact of in the past 7+ years with HTC I wasn't interested in the BS or Bashing that generally follows these kinds of posts as demonstrated in the past.

Gene (SWfire) had only been with HTC since this last May.  SWfire was a Firefighter/Paramedic and we hit it off immediately as there's been more than one occasion a Firefighter has managed to bail my arse out as a cop.  When his widow contacted me and informed me of his passing, she applogized because she knew of his absolute passion for the squad and the game.

The Missing Man Memorial flight is a very small way to let Sue (his wife), and family, know his passion was not without cause.  We plan to film the event from several angles, and present the final edited version to the Knight family.  Anyone that can help make this happen would be grately appreciated.  Those interested please PM Kilz for details.

Salute SWfire, Rest in Peace Brother.
