April 7, 2023 at 1:25 pmDon Walker. I will miss you! Though we didn’t directly work with together, I do remember an exercise where we were supposed to be casualties so we had to crawl into this attic space so no one would find us. We had to stay there for about an hour and half so we exchanged stories. He was a fun guy! He was one of the good ones. We’ll miss you with the operations crew but we’ll always remember you. RIP
