Hi All,

Really like the site, and with my Twin Brother Keith deployed as a AH-64 MTP with 1st Cav I've been looking at it daily! The names are not posted yet, and I don't know if there is a policy on information, so I will just say the Chaplain from Fort Rucker stopped by yesterday. :'(

Anyway I just retired last February, spent the last 11 years in recruiting. Prior to that I was with 3-25th AHB 92-94 at Drum as a 60 TI and EH-60 Plt Sgt. 3-1 AAHB (AH-64) 89-91 as a 60 CE and Bn ALSE NCOIC, did Apache training BDE at Hood before deploying to Germany. D 2/7 CAV at Carson 87-88 Crewed AH-1's, I was a 67G(u-21 mech) and the MOS was being deleted. 86-87 45th Trans Korea RU-21H Phase Team for 3rd MI. Sure do miss the old days.

I'm sorry to hear that and my families prayers are with yours.

I never meet your brother but have heard a lot about him. I fly 64's and my last name is Yochim. Every unit I have been to people have asked me if I was related to your brother and then went into stories about him. From all the stories I hear, people loved serving with your brother.

Kevin,

My husband served with Keith in 1-227 and has said on many occasions, what a great guy he was. I'm so sorry for your loss.

I just wanted to reiterate longbowwife's comment. I was stationed with Keith a few years back and he was nothing short of stellar, professionally and personally.

Sorry for your loss.

I went to the IE course with your brother. Very sorry for your loss. He was a great guy, always had a smile on his face, and was always in a good mood, which was not easy to do in that course. He will truly be missed.

I was with Keith In Egypt. He was an outstanding aviator and I am proud to have known him. He will be missed but never forgotten.

I met your brother once, when he came to our hangar to ask about one of the battalions birds that was in phase. It was a sad day when his aircraft was forced down.
