Thanks, my, for the explanation of LDO....I had to go looking for the answer, to make sure I didn’t post something dumb. You clarified what I thought I read.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Welcome to the Canteen, Christie at the beach....thanks for your support of our troops.

[mylife]

We got him to eat “whole belly” clams that day! LOL

Oh he had trepidation when I described them, but he was a real trooper and enjoyed them.
He even wore the lobstah bib! LOL

My we had fun!

[luvie]

Thank you. I wasn’t thinking straight or I would have done that.

I just can’t get my head around this, MY! (((hugs)))

Chris was hoping to make Commander before retirement, but it was not to be.

Still as a Lt Commander he was the highest ranking mustang that I called friend.

It’s a darn shame his retirement was so short. :(

[mylife]

These things happen so fast, it is difficult to fathom.

[luvie]

I loved the bib touch! LOL! Was that also the night of “bork-bork”?

WHAT a funny, sweet guy he was! *sigh*

[Darksheare]

Welcome.
It’s getting to be way too often as you said.

[mylife]

Yes, He had one heck of a sense of humor!

Late on the night of the lobster/clam dinner, He shared his knowledge of “Ukrainian Bombers”.

That led to much hilarity, and we only drank like a 1/4 of the bottle, LOL Whoo boy!

Chris led a very interesting life from what I could gather.
He seemed to enjoy seeing the world “as it is”

I had a grand time yukking it up with him and we were both howling, because YOU were howling!

[Kathy in Alaska]

I hadn't heard from him for months, then late yesterday afternoon a freepmail from tongue-tied. Alas...but I am so thankful to know of his passing, that we have lost a friend and can say good-bye, and not just lost contact.

He will be missed.

Some pictures he sent from his helo school in Ukraine.

You know? Days like that are a million bucks.

We did have a grand time.
