<~S~> TwoDogs5 <~S~>
« on: October 18, 2011, 11:48:19 AM »
:pray I have just learned from a former squaddie, JGMedic, that TwoDogs5 had passed away within the last 24 hours. He had been suffering for the last few years with a multitude of medical issues that finally took his life. Twodogs5 was the Commanding Officer of JG3-Udet for many years and had played the game since the Air Warrior days. At times, Joe ruled with an iron fist, ruffled a few feathers but, there was no other person I'd rather go into battle with as he was also one of the most compassionate. I joined the game in tour 76 and shortly became a member of the squad, learning the game quickly under his tutelage and that of other trusted members that "TD" had chosen. He was a great friend, lover of animals and a true leader within the game. Joe and I spent many hours in the game together as well as countless hours conversing over the phone about the squad, the game and life in general. My only regret is that I never got a chance to meet him in person.

 :salute TwoDogs5! There will never be another Squaddie, Leader or Human Being such as you again. God Bless Brother.

When I first started flying the 109, there were only a few Luft squads out there. JG 3 was one of them. I spoke to him in depth only once but as you put it, he seemed like a great leader and a passionate player.
