Another veteren leaves us...
« on: November 30, 2004, 06:07:00 PM »
I'd like to extend a post to the AH O'Club to give their prayers to the family of Col. Jack Reed, USMC (Retired) who lost the battle with cancer yesterday, November 29th.

Col. Reed served in the Marine Corps during WWII and Korea. I can't remember his unit off-hand but he flew F4U Corsairs and was a very good friend to my grandfather. I've known Col. Reed since I was very little, and he loved my brother and I like his own grandsons. He was a hell of a guy and he will be missed.

Col. Reed. You're no longer in pain. St. Peter is getting one hell of a man to shoot war stories with.

Sorry to hear this.

Rest in Peace.

Some will fall in love with life and drink it from a fountain that is pouring like an avalanche coming down the mountain
