Ron,
It didn't die, I replied to it but I sent it to him personally at the address provided. I also mentioned it was ironic he couldn't bring a kilt where First Sgt Farr was encouraged to wear one. I said it sounded like a good excuse to take up the pipes...

I was going to post his original message, but I don't have it anymore. Ron, can you help? Here is his e-mail address (posted at the other board) if anyone is interested in saying hello personally to him as I did. He may not have access to these boards, or his access may be severly restricted while he's deployed.

'halsteadwf@bonhomme-richard.usmc.mil'

He's a Sgt (E-5)
Take care
Lauren Neher
