Carl, you typify your Marine heritage- Service to country and community, you will always stand as one of our very best troops. When I would need someone to stay late, come in early, take a shitty assignment or bust a door you were always the first to step up-First One In, Last Man Out. The fact that you emptied your magazine into that drug-demented POS says it all stop the threat, stop it now.
I miss you, my friend.
