A lot of you have kept up with him as I post... We are flying back to Arizona tomorrow. On Saturday, he will take his last flight in his F-16 and we will be there to see him land. Afterwords, his squadron hose him down or whatever they do. Then they are having a retirement ceremony that should be nice...will be a proud moment 4sure. He will retire as a Lt. Colonel and soon start flying for American Airlines. They have already moved to Chandler to be near the Phoenix Airport....
I miss my big brother
