I doubt there's a flying squadron in the Air Force that hasn't felt the benefit of what Rich has done. There's no way to begin to quantify the positive effects of his work. We're all in his debt. Thank you, brother.

That video had swear words and he wasn't very tolerant of the enemy. This is totally going to mess up my feelings wall.

A downrange formal ceremony requesting the help of MAJCOM protocol. Define downrange... then choke yourself.

I met Rich back in Field Training back in '93. Ran into him a few times before and after he started the site. If it wasn't for Baseops, I'd still be on Active Duty living in Nebraska...which wouldn't have been terrible, but I'm much better off because of all his work and the help of all those who went before me and contributed to this site. I know many former navs who owe their pilot wings to this site. Thanks Baseops. Rest in Peace brother.

Taking donations for flowers to the funeral or anything like that?

No. IFS exists to benefit the Air Force, not you. Get your PPL.

Well this is going to get worse before it gets better...

Good man, will be missed.

Made more of a positive impact on the USAF than most of the CSAFs.... Him Him

If you're in a deployed location why are they doing a ceremony? The new dude should show up and start working.
