It was an honor to serve with Tony in the 6251st USAH here in Tucson. He was a gentle man, always ready with a smile and willing to help others. My sincere condolences to his family, friends and fellow service members who undoubtedly have many similar memories of serving with Tony. Rest well, MAJ Zubieta. Slow hand salute.
