To the Bradt family, my condolences on Bob's passing. I was fortunate in knowing him and being mentored by him as a young pilot with the 109th. He was always my go to guy when I needed answers and guidance on the C-130. He will be remembered for his sense of humor, professionalism and knowledge on the aircraft. It was a pleasure to know and fly with him. May best to you all. Mark

I am so sad to hear this news, I worked and flew missions with Bob at the Air Guard for many years and played golf with him in the league. He was a brilliant man, a pleasure to be with and he was certainly a great mentor to me at the Guard Base.
