Michael A. Norman

Norm, I´m thinking of you this Memorial Day. You made me a better Soldier, and later in life I became a better family man from the example of your leadership. While you were a hardcore paratrooper all the way, I eventually caught on. I wish you were still here.

l knew Michael from OCS, class of 12/01. He spoke of his wife and Sammy often. He was a mischievous, funny guy; he always had a sense of humor. He was also an inspiring, stand-up guy who always led by example. He never criticized, only built others up. lt has been 19 years since l met him. l will always remember and honor him. He was a hero and did whatever needed to be done. God bless him, as well as his loved ones who live without him. We will see him again one day.

I knew Mike as a kid in Buedingen he was always full of fun and mischief god bless all of you I know he has been gone a while now and I think of him from time to time especially around Memorial Day but I can still see him and Bliss strutting down the sidewalk like they were something.

We are so appreciative for all your messages for our family about our son. My husband and I are going to Fort Riley Kansas for the first time to see the Memorials with Mike's name on them.

We have met many of the people that served with Mike and it has been such a pleasure. I would like to meet Major Hunt who served with Mike in Iraq.
Again thank you all for your prayers and thoughts about Mike.

Thinking of you and your family this weekend as another year passes. Norm, you will never be forgotten. It was an honor and privelige to serve alongside you. 3-8-2 NPTT Team Shark. Throwin' seven different kinds of smoke!

I only recently heard of Mike passing. I studied Korean with him at DLI. I cannot believe he is gone. So.proud of him for becoming an officer. Prayers to his family. Every run I do will be for him and his memory.

I think of you and your family often. It was an honor to have known and served with you.
Rest in peace my friend. Sergeant First Class Retired Aaron E Buhrer.

Mike, thinking of you today. Thanks for all your help when we were colleagues and many blessings to your family.

I never spoke to Cpt.Michael A. Norman, we became acquainted on this day five years ago. Our introduction was chaotic, brief and something I will never forget. I never spoke to Cpt. Michael A. Norman, but I've never forgot him.
