My former CO (326 Med Bn.) at Fort Campbell KY. A well respected officer and a gentleman. He signed waivers for me for time-in-service and time-in-grade thereby promoting me to Sergeant. I was a 76C at the time and the Army was short on E-5's in that MOS. I had proved myself by helping the battalion in that regard after an IG inspection. My condolences to his family as I just came across this news and was saddened by it.
