Coming up on six years. To this day, every time I polish my boots, I remember sitting in your dorm room in academy and you're showing me how to polish my boots. Those boots have long since been replaced but I still remember. You had taken the time to show me the right way, took time to invest in my life. You taught me a lot while in the academy. Lessons I now teach to my officers.
Rest in peace brother.

He was a father figure to me I will always.look up to him and make him proud of what I will be come.
