Though I only met Doug at the beginning of this year, I quickly came to know that he was truly an inspiration to many. Thanks for your talks at the MWR concerts and sharing your insights with me. I appreciate your service to our Troops. You will be missed tremendously!! ~Mark Woods, President of Operation Troop Aid |
