Such brave warriors. May they face the Lord and hear "Well done my faithful servant." Amen.

I met Mack as a Sergeant in 1990 while he was a Marine Reservist and I was part of the Inspector/Instructor Staff in Abilene/Dyess AFB TX. MSgt Mack obviously became an excellent Marine leader and I will always remember his easy smile and his dedication to our country. Semper Fi Mackey, semper fi.
