I was in Class with Matt at URG. We were all training for a new career. We both had something in common...we were both Marines. He talked about how he trained in San Diego and I at Parris Island. I sat right across from him in class and sometimes i would try to make faces to make him laugh to break up the bordem. I didn't know him long at all...but i could tell he was a nice guy to be around and he will not be forgotten. My deepest respect to him and his family...Sincerely Bill Ayers
