Barney (on the far right) during Desert Storm, March 1991

Barney was the best officer I ever worked for. He was the director at DPS, 1st Med Bn when we 1st met and he was my commanding officer at Echo Co, 1st Med Bn in Saudi Arabia during Desert Shield and Storm. Barney inspired others with his leadership, integrity, honesty, concern and compassion for others. I will be attending the memorial service on 9/29 and I am profoundly sorry that I was not able to see him recently. I will miss Barney and his laugh, smile and wise advice. What an excellent human being he was and I am blessed for having known him.
