You are truely missed. My condolences goes out to your family. I hope they are doing well. Every year I think about you and your family. It is still emotional for me to think about that day. I will always treasure the memories of working and taking those rides to Ft. Myers and Fort McNair to have lunch with you. I am sure SFC Ricketts, SFC Jackson and SFC Washington feel the same. What a wonderful NCO and great asset you were in the G1. On this day, my thoughts are with you.

SFC Jose calderon was one if the most wonderful NCO's to work with. As his 1Sg in Desert Storm, I was extremly proud to have Jose on our team. Nothing was to difficult for Jose, and many times he forfeited his own welfare to help others. On behalf of Delta Company 2/66 Armor I would like to express our grief and sorry, at the loss of a fine Senior NCO, Soldier, and dedicated Family Man.

America Cries
We see your sorrow-
and our hearts cry....
We can not erase your pain
but you do not have to face the anguish alone-for we-
-the American people-
are beside you.
We so desperately want to have the touch that brings you comfort,
the strength that gives you courage,
and the words to lighten your spirits.
And when we are left speechless
may the silence of our nation weave love into your hearts
to ease your sorrow.
May you find healing through our nation's strength as we-
-the American people-
face this difficult time together. Our hearts are with you. Teresa Jahn
