General Gary Edward Luck (Ret.)

Sir God speed on your journey to the Spirit world. Thank you for giving a young Native American Captain the opportunity to command the Second Brigade,8th ID HHC Company and especially for your mentorship. Because of you I went on to retire a Colonel. RIP General. Wish I could share a beer with you like we all used to do during Baumholder Officer Club Happy Hour. I will never forget you.

I had the distinct privilege to serve with General Gary Luck 2 ID Camp Casey, Korea (1985-86). He was the epitome of Service, Sacrifice and Pride for the Corps. I am one of the beneficiaries of his wisdom, leadership and mentorship. Dr. (CW5) Lionel E. Cartwright USA, Retired

I served with General Luck in Korea as his C/J-6 Sergeant Major. His office was right above mine and he would come down the back steps and always sit for a minute and talk to me on just about any topic. CSM Andrew McFlower was his Command Sergeant Major. It was a great honor to serve with General Luck who truly cared about his soldiers and the US Army. May he rest in Gods hands .

Served under General Luck in Korea and during Desert Storm. One of my favorite Generals. A man´s man and a true leader who treated the soldiers great. RIP

General Luck was my boss twice. In 8ID in Germany when he was the Chief of Staff and in 2ID when he was the Division commander. He was the best. A soldier unlike any other. He trained me to always do what is right for soldiers and then you'll be doing what is right for the Army. God bless him and God bless all who loved him.

In loving memory of a wonderful person. We will love you and miss you always.

First and foremost, let me offer my sincere condolences to Leah and the entire Luck family. Gary Luck was the type of leader, mentor an officer that we should all strive to be. I know I took his leadership style to heart, not only in my military career but also in my post service endeavors. Our nation and our army lost a shining example of dedication and service. He was truly `Second to None´.
