I first met Jon during a torch mission in Chiang Mai, Thailand in 2002. One of our team members was infamous for bumming Copenhagen. His bogarting became so much of a problem that those of us that had the habit had quickly run out by the second week. Jon heard us bitching about it one day near a classroom but said nothing. He had taken off the next day to Bangkok for some business. Three days later he shows up with a half dozen logs of the cardboard cans. Pro bono he says. He just wanted us to see if we could get our hands on some used woodland bdu's for his sniper students when we got back to Colorado. We found about 200 sets of useable bdu's that were going to be trashed in a warehouse and sent them to him. Our thanks for his kindness. That guy was a 1st Group legend and a damn good man. RIP brother.
