On August 18, 2007 Jack Riedel, after visiting the Departed Warriors web page on the Silent Warriors web site, wrote me the following:

Airlee, I grieve for some of the names I don't see on your list. Some of our older comrades like Fred Mehl, John Saunders, Nick Santore and Pete Stinus. Ed Schmiedeberg was another. All are ghosts and real people in our past. They all contributed. God bless them all. I wish I could speak up for the brave comrades missing from your website. Dave Blazell, a most revered member, was not even honored by the HOH. He was such a private person that he allowed only a few to really know him. We are also missing a vast segment from the Vietnam war, the folks who flew the Lectronic Goons. They walked the walk but most never chose to join the rest of the recon world. They are also a part of our great heritage. God bless them all.

Jack
After reading Jack's e-mail I decided that maybe we could create a Wall of Honor, so to speak, for those whom have passed on and for whom we do not have obituaries or notifications of death. If any Prop Wash Gang member knows of some Silent Warrior whose name does not show up on the Departed Warriors web page they can send me an e-mail and we will add their name to this Hall of Honor page.
