One of my best friends was a Marine. We flew together for a while and I learned a new respect for the grunts I had called Jarheads for years. Just as we were becoming real friends I had some time off and he took a flight with another guy. They had a problem on takeoff and rode the ship down, crashing on the runway and killing both on board.
I miss Keith every day. Semper Fi my Friend!
