We are in the planning stages of a memorial for our dearly departed C.O. knob. We plan on it being next week but, have yet to finalize the details. Thanks, PorkyPig.

Sorry for your loss Dickweeds. Never knew knob but he clearly was doing something right to get that squad together for your weekly bombing runs. Always love watching those missions run, reminds me of the old old days. Hang tough and keep the metal rain coming

So sorry to hear of  your loss, prayers for family and friends.

Standing by for orders. If it's on DHBG's normal squad night and time, I'll be there..  or the weekend.

Brings back memories of my former bomb group partaking in CO Vega's memorial flight..

Our squadmate OneWay found this oral history of Knob sharing his experience as a young Marine CH-53D helicopter pilot during Operation Urgent Fury, the resue mission to evacuate medical students from the island of Granada in 1983. It's a gripping story. <S> Knob! RIP!
