Guest Ranger332 Posted August 27, 2003 Just got it varified the PW (PhantomWarrior) died in Iraq a few weeks ago dident know him well we meet on line in Novalogic Lighting3 game as he had a dialup he asked if he could remote off my pc for dl and to play the game (dont think it ever incressed his speed lol,but he dident lag he said) but he was always trying things(crashed his PC about once a month :)) We meet for about 45secs at an airstrip He reognized my voice from Roger Wilco and called out "Ranger" I was shall we say talking to an officer that had messed up or "stick" and was trying to load all improtant equipment to the same "bird" (not our S.O.P.) though I dident realy know him He enjoyied the sims as I did ,and that was all we needed to be "friends" He "Flew with the Sultans a Raptor Sqd in Nova. Just saying Goodby to him in a way he might like (took his sig and added his "pic") and posting in Salute and "Good journey" War tends to feed off the young and those with the most promise.

Guest MrMudd Posted August 27, 2003 Lord, guard and guide the men who fly Through the great spaces of the sky. Be with them traversing the air In darkening storms or sunlight fair. You who support with tender might The balanced birds in all their flight, Lord of the tempered winds be near, That having you, they know no fear. Control their minds with instinct fit Whene’er, adventuring, they quit The firm security of land; Grant steadfast eye and skillful hand. Aloft in solitudes of space, Uphold them with your saving grace. O God, protect the men who fly Through lonely ways beneath the sky. Amen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Iam 39 and retired from service yougster In case anyone is confused on who this is just click the link for a listing of his previous posts: http://forum.biohazcentral.com/search.php?...=PhantomWarrior Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

snapple2993 0 Posted August 28, 2003 <S> :!: Perhaps we could send his family something (collectively) once the details are sorted out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Ranger332 Posted August 28, 2003 OK heres is what I found out so far it appers his name was j dont know if it was jay or j was short for something but it seems the family isent to fond of simmers right now. unknown to them "J" played Ghost Recon two days after his reported death someone sent a letter stating they would blow him to bits and send him to his base in cubes(they dident know what had happened and were talking about the game. Then four days later they got the linda bleir face from the excorset the love song thinky. the two things compined and for the most part they arnt responding to much. Got the info from some kid I think as they refered to "Uncle J" then the line went "cold" maybe if we send E-mails they will not hate simmers H was in 4th ID in a support role of unknown type rekbre@netscape.net ICQ#174234975 MJ can you run an IP3 tracer for the state or do they have to be on? that is all I have seems I know some of you folks better then I knew him Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Seawolf 0 Posted August 28, 2003 It would make more sense to me to find out more info on him before approaching his family about anything. The last bit of info sounds strange. If all we know is "J" then we need to find out more. Sorry, it's just the ol investigator comming out of me again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
