Band of Brother passes

I just found out that Ronald Speirs passed away on April 11th. He was 86 years old. Another one of the greatest generation has gone. Currahee!
 

I can take umbrage, I can take the cake, I can take the A-Train, I can take two and call me in the morning, but I cannot take this sitting down. Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm going to take five.

That's sad news Mustangdriver. He was a excellent leader.
 

Keep'em flying.

I'll view the HBO special "Band Of Brothers" tonight to pay tribute. R.I.P. Mr.Speirs.

I wasn't sure about him at first in the series, but I found myself saying "I'd follow him" as it went along. I hope his landing on the next DZ is soft. God Speed!
