I extend my condolences to the Ask family and am very sorry for their loss. I knew Ted as a devoted and hard working AF technician during the time he was in charge of the Defense Red Switch Network at Tyndall AFB. His dedication to duty made all the difference to help senior leadership make informed decisions and shape new policies in the aftermath of the 9/11 terrorist attacks on US soil.

Ted will remain in my thoughts and prayers and may God bless and strengthen the Ask family during this difficult time.
