As a retired military there are many words that can be said but they don't express the true feelings of loosing a brother in arms even one you didn't personally get to know but this is my feeling at present. With the sun behind it like a setting sun May our family member rest in peace in God's hand and may God bring comfort to the family and friends

I got an idea. Lets get a paypal account setup for BLRman and lets get him enough to buy the gov tag next year so he can go get that bull of a lifetime for Aaron??? We have almost 13000 members if we all gave less then 5 dollars we would have enough to get that tag.

Sickening news.  Thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends.  His knowledge and posts will be  greatly missed.

 RIP, brave one, and thank you for providing us the freedom that most take for granted.

I'm so sorry for your loss! RIP Aaron. I always enjoyed reading your posts.

Go kill his Colorado bull. He will be there with you!

Sir,

I'm sorry for your loss. I lost a Marine Corps buddy at the end of last year and this song says it all.

I just talked to my cousin scott who is in the marine corp and currently in country and will be flying home with Aaron so he doesn't have to fly alone.

Prayers sent to his family.

It seems like it was just a few days ago I was sending him off with prayers and thanking him for his service.  This is just overwhelming.

DANG Crazysccrd and all of our other members over there.   Be careful.  WE REALLY DO CARE and THANK YOU for what you are doing, eventhough we wish you were home.   

 :yeah: What a reality check....makes a guy think how lucky we really are to have guys and gals like this that are willing to risk it all for the rest of us.  A sad day for sure and my thoughts and prayers go out to those who have made the ultimate sacrifice and to the other men and women that are still risking it all.
The best friend a guy could have asked for. RIP chasing pheasants in heaven Denali girl.
