Appreciate all the kind words and condolences. Only knew Tim from language school until after SERE when our class was split up for MOS training. Most of the time I was way too intimidated to talk to him because he made me and a few other guys look like twigs next to a great oak (sleeve tattoos didn't help either). Didn't see Tim until the guys he was attached to swapped out with us in country. The intimidation was still present. After a few weeks he left for Bagram to support the command up there, and we saw him again before we left country. He was terribly bummed out in that environment and wanted nothing more than to get back out again. The Regiment has indeed lost another one of its finest, and the 21st of September will remain with several others as a day of remembrance.
