Still another RIP - Carey Lassiter 2/75

Dudes,

I suck at anything with a keyboard and can't get the article posted here. Am very sorry to say that another of our own has taken his own life, former A2/75, Carey Lassiter. I remember him on the quad and other AO's. He was a stud by any man's estimation. CSM Jeff Mellinger posted it on a few websites.

My prayers and thoughts are with his family and friends.

Carey was in 1st Plt, A Co when I got there in '77.
Gung ho to the core.
After he left the Battalion, we ran into him in Florida on an EDRE.
I remember that an SF Team set up a Fulton Recovery System to extract the "stuff" that we had recovered during our part of the mission.
Carey was on the SF Team.
He was one of the good ones!
RIP Carey.
