What an amazingly heroic person he was. I'm sorry for your loss. May he rest in peace, and may his daughter be comforted by memories of his heroism and how much he loved her.

Rest in peace , Lt. Sharp. Prayers for your family. I hope your daughter lives a long , guilt free life with many happy memories of her dad, a MAN among men.

"It's a great life. You risk your skin catching killers and the juries turn them loose so they can come back and shoot at you again. If your honest , your poor your whole life. And , In the end , you wind up dying all alone on some dirty street. For what? For nothing. For a tin star."
Far from being a handicap to command, compassion is the measure of it. For unless one values the lives of his soldiers and is tormented by their ordeals , he is unfit to command.
