In an October thread, Maddog told the community about TwoDogs5 having health issues for the past many months, and offered contact info to get in touch with TD. As a past squaddie of his from JG3-Udet (as most of the members of my current squad the Aggressors all are) I sent TD a letter. I got a phone call back from him today. I can say that he has been through the health wringer this year, literally to hell and back. It's been about as bad as it can get, and he was pretty low over it all for awhile.
However, while he is not without a few wounds and limitations, and while there's still some battling back to be done, he seems to have recovered a more positive attitude and he sounds very positive, just like the fighter he is. So much so in fact, he thinks he may be able to get back into the skies of AH in the fairly near future if all goes right.
He asked me to convey to everyone that he appreciates all the well wishes the community has conveyed, and would love to hear from all his flying and GV'ing friends and squaddies, as it helps keep his spirits up. So, if you'd like to write or phone him, send a PM to "1Maddog1" and ask for TwoDogs5's contact info.
