I am saddened to hear this, Bent was a great squaddie and a great guy. Always came on and had fun never let things drag him down,  he always elevated the mood of the squad and he will be missed.

I'm getting old.....

Bentnail was here in the game as long as I can remember. He was fearless in expressing what he believed and what he thought of you. But, he never held any differences against you, choosing to be your friend. It meant you had to be just as fearless in returning the same to him in the face of his unique brand of humor. He respected that and always held true to being your friend. He had a way of helping everyone around him toughen up a bit and grow a sense of humor.

I will miss Bentnail. I pray the good Lord takes care of him after his hard fought journey. And that the Lord helps his family in this time of need. My prayers are with Mrs. Pfaff, Ed was the Love of her Life.

This is like the old joke that voters are harsher to their beer brewer if he has an outage, than their politicians after raising their taxes. Death and taxes are certain but, fun and sex is only now.

Bent, no!

I ran into him a lot in the TA and DA. He was a great stick, always flew for fun. I will miss him. :(

First person that spoke to me in AH - Bent
First person to suggest a squad - Bent
First person to suggest me to Waystin and Syko to be a PoTW - Bent

A man that truly turned his life around and made a difference.

I will miss you Bent...

<S>All the Pigs.  You lost a great man and a super toon teammate.

Edit:  if you never had a chance to fly with Bent, you missed more range VOX fun than you'll ever be able to capture.  Unbelievable laughs.  I am stunned.
