I'm very proud to have served with Richard on track 1 Zero and to have ridden with the him and the Blackhorse. He was the best Track Sergeant that I could have asked for. He was the only one I listened to. It was as if the good Lord sent him my way.
I enjoyed the visits at their home that my wife and I shared with him and Doris . They always made us feel welcome, just like family.
Once again, Thanks, Sgt!
