I never had the opportunity to serve with Tony but knew the name. It's always sad to learn of another shipmate passing. My sincere condolences to his family. God bless and RIP Master Chief you will be remembered by all who knew you.
I never had the privilege of working with Tony while on active duty, but did collaborate with him during the OSIPS FTA deployment. I wish I had known him better.
Fair winds Tony... and sincere condolences to his family and friends.
