Final Roll Call: R.I.P.
« on: February 18, 2012, 08:16:46 PM »
It is with deep regret that I have to announce the passing of hgCeech a member of the 365th-fbg Hell Hawks of Aces High II on 2-18-2012  Ceech fought a long and hard battle with lung cancer and is now in a better place, pain free and no longer suffering. hgCeech was an original founding member of the 365th-fbg Hell Hawks, he served our great country during the Korean War time period in the US Navy as a radio operator on an LST, he was an FAA pilot, and love to play Aces High II flying his B-17 flying fortress, he was a mentor to many and a father figure to some, a brother to the members of the 365th FBG Hell Hawks. You will be truly missed but never forgotten. God speed and may you rest in peace until we meet again.   The 365th-fbg Hell Hawks will be planning a memorial flight for hgCeech on 2-26-2012 at 3pm EST all are requested and invited to attend. ARENA  will be posted at a later date. Most likely the training arena.

         Condolences to you and your squad, HGDAN. A loss like this is always hard and that in itself is a tribute to your friend, Ceech.
         See you in the air next Sunday.
