Ernest Eugene Utt Jr.

1SG Utt, Though you may be gone, your legacy and sacrifice will forever remain in our hearts. You led with courage, strength, and unwavering commitment to your Soldiers. You left an indelible mark on all of us who had the honor of serving alongside you. Your memory will never fade. I carried forward what you taught me, and you will never be forgotten. Rest in peace, 1SG. Thank you for your ultimate sacrifice. With deep respect, Spinks

1SG, you are not forgotten. Victor and I were just talking about you the other day. To this day, retired 1SG Victor Cordero keeps a framed portrait of you on his mantel. REST IN PEACE TOP!

Missing you

Ernest,
How time flies. Well were back at Hood, and you are always remembered in our home. Although we may not see you we learned so much from you, and it still carries on today. Tracy is doing good and remembers all you taught him.
Thanks for all the laughs, lessons, and love of family you showed us. Gone but not forgotten.
Always, The Tracy Family
