My prayers to TSgt Williams family and friends and his brothers and sisters in arms at Bagram and Seymour. I miss the work of the yellow AMU. Keep the faith.

The Air Force has lost a valuable NCO and an established mentor for our airmen. His loss will be felt by everyone he has influenced in the Air Force. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family friends and organization.
