It's about time. I hope the Chief is looking down and finally able to smile. I was an MTL at Sheppard AFB and was at the dedication of the new dorm in his honor in 2006. (That was just before I retrained into C2 and went to Tinker to work AWAC's, that is why I remember it so well) Good on you Chief!
