I would like to thank you ALL for your messages and words of kindness. CSM Joe Kope was my grandfather and I loved him very much. We had a very special bond, he encourged me to join the military, I took his advice and have not regretted it one day. I am very proud to serve my country and I know my grandfather was too. He was very proud to be a special forces warrior and though he died, he died surrounded by friends doing what he loved. Again I thank you all for your messages and I thank you for your service.
