One of the finest in long range precision marksmanship and the most talented Sniper to don a ghillie suit. One of the best friends I ever had, I miss you my friend. Too much was left unsaid and now I’ll never get the chance to tell him how I respected so very much. He taught me so much about leadership without saying anything.

To the Family it is unbelievable it has been almost 17 years of Philip's passing. The memories of all of us growing up and how time has pasted and so many things have changed. I know he is watching over all and he is RIP till we meet again. Love you

I served with CSM Albert when he was a First Sergeant in Alaska. I was a young junior NCO at the time and learned more from my time with CSM Albert than I did with anyone else my entire career. I recently retired as a Major after 23 years of service and I can honestly say, Phil was truly one of a kind and perhaps the finest soldier I ever had the honor and privilege of serving with. RIP CSM.

SGM Albert was my mentor. I was one of his LTs at the time and did not deploy with them. I lost a GREAT friend and leader who taught me so much during my time spent with him in 2-87 IN BN at Fort Drum, NY. GOD Bless his soul and may he rest in peace! He was a great man!

SGM Albert was my First Sergeant when I was assigned to HHC, 1-17th Infantry at Fort Wainwright, Alaska. We trained in Guam together. I remember fondly that we were locked down inside the training site, but 1SG Albert took a small detail to go into Agana for supplies. On the way, we passed a rib joint. He turned to us, "Who wants ribs?" After eating MRE's for days and days, who among us would say no? The acting commander of our unit was my boss, the JAG officer, CPT Carlile. I can...
