Gents,
 
	I've been off the board for quite a few years....still monitor but rarely post.  I'm in complete agreement with Hacker, Huggy, ClearedHot, and Jeremiah.  As a really old former pointy nose dude,  I'm absolutely livid that this young fighter pilot's life was lost.  Besides the total failure of leadership,  first time AAR at night--YGTBSM , in the best of conditions with a controlled ejection who knows if he could have recognized, and reacted to manually deploy.  This is just heartbreaking.
