I remember so many damn crazy ass things about you, and now, I miss every last one of them! In the Corps, you were the best damn leader I ever knew. You challenged us all to be better, everyday;.then you'd let the reins go, and let us. Or, your dismissing yourself from a party, in your sober days, and go off orienting, compass in hand, into the woods. Or, when you drag me to an AA meeting from TAVSC, and shout, "To the gay bar!!!" You were always the most attracting person where ever you were, always. All those times we sat in shop tearing some asshole officer up, and they'd suddenly walk in, all pissed looking, you'd go, "We knew you were there; we were just fucking with you!" And, we'd all laugh! We did not always get along, but we did always care about each other. I could go on forever telling all the crazy shit we used to do, and that's why you are sorely missed. Who's gonna knock me out of my box, but for memories of you! Peace and love, Lester Leroy Amen, Semper Fi, my brother. Rock on!!!
