I'd seen a number of stories before telling of his inspirational outlook. I was sorry to have heard that he died.  :(

 :salute Sgt. Merlin

I wish I could have met you.

Its men and women like him that suffered much and gave all for this country that makes me proud to support them where ever I go and whatever I do.

May God watch over his family and keep them; I know they will be in my thoughts as I pray.
