One of the first warriors I ran into at the ceremony was my pal TSgt Eric (shit hot) Lyke. Eric was with me in Korea . Pictured L-R: SrA Lewlyn Lippert, Eric, SSgt Robert Clem and SSgt Vic Martinez. Was great to see Eric and meet these great guys. Keep on truckin'!
Next I headed out to the smoking area with Tony and ran into another pal of mine, TSgt Steve Ochoa.
Now here are two of my very favorite people. CMSgt Tony Killion and SMSgt (S) Marty Lund. I can't even begin to tell what a great job these two did for me. Marty was a SrA and took a TSgt slot and was absolutely one of the best Chief D's I ever had. Tony and I came together in Korea and continued the legacy to Randolph AFB where we kicked ass and took names! Like I said at my retirment, AFPC treated me right with the very best troops the the AF had to offer!
I finally got the pleasure of meeting SMSgt Andre Figures, shown here with MG Koziol, Commander AIA and ceremony guest speaker.
