Title: Gander Crash Rememberance
Post by: gadget99 on December 12, 2014, 12:00:41 PM

Hi All,

Today is a remembrance day for me.

on 12/12/85 I lost a large amount of my battle buddies in an airplane crash in Gander Newfoundland.

If you are inclined or willing, please take a moment to say a few words for them.

The funny thing is that I did my 20 in the Army partially for those of them the could not.

RIP Brothers.

Thank you all for the responses.

There is a bright side to this though.

12 Dec has always been a VERY difficult day for me. I mean REALLY difficult.

This year was not as bad..... I concentrated on remembering the good times we had as opposed to wallowing in sorrow. I have also accepted that any controversies surrounding the crash are really never going to be solved. So I have stopped stressing over that aspect.

I also feel really good about the fact that one of the reasons I stayed to retirement was to finish their time for them.

Cheers all.
