So long to a hero


I never read Major Olmsteds blog. I wish I had.
Regardless of political leanings the world is better because of people like him. hilzoy at Obsidian Wings has a posthumous letter
he wrote in the event of his passing. Should be required reading. His insight is amazing. Was grinning at his musings, then was bawling from knowing that the only reason I read this is because he is gone.

Peace Andrew Olmsted

Sad to lose him. OW was critical mil-blog reading, and he'll be missed more than he could have imagined.
