Capt Benter was my CO on first assignment in Kef. A real gentleman who was always concerned with the issues of the crew. RIP,Sir.

Captain Benter was a fine CO in Keflavik and an equally fine man. He reenlisted me and did so with sincerity and understood the significance of a sailor continuing his career. It wasn't just a routine ceremony with him, you could just sense how seriously he administered that oath. May he rest well on the other side and smile down on all those he touched.

Sorry to hear this, he was my CO during my first tour there.
