Really, that happened on Oct 28th? Funny, you kinda miss the signicance of days now and again. Kind of interesting, he was a helluva leader and a great tactitian.

Kind of a bummer of a way to go, running into your own guy. Sucks.

I would not say it was cool. He was a good pilot and the ace of aces. It is sad that he did not live longer to tell his stories.
